Queen of Eddie’s Court

ANNE MARIE FEIGNER

Anne Marie Feigner is an author, speaker, and the devoted widow of Eddie Feigner, the legendary founder of The King and His Court—the most recognized four-man softball team in the world. Her life’s story is one of strength, love, and quiet heroism, as she stood faithfully beside her husband both on and off the field.

For over a decade, Anne Marie was the driving force behind Eddie, up to 22 hours a day—literally and figuratively. As Eddie toured the country and played softball, even while confined to a wheelchair, Anne Marie made sure he was always supported. She drove him from event to event, managed logistics, and was the pillar that held everything together. She made sure he was well taken care of, allowing him to inspire millions with his talent and story.

FROM AN ORPHAN TO A KING

Anne Marie co-authored From an Orphan to a King, a powerful autobiography that tells the story of Eddie’s rise from poverty and hardship to international fame. But it also tells a greater story—the one of devotion and love, and of the woman who made sure his light never dimmed.

" In 1952, The greatest athlete I ever saw the King pitched wonder at Frasier Field in Lynn Ma. I wrote my song From and Orphan to a King in 2007 sung by Phil Coley and published by King of the Road Music. Years later in Bangor, Me. I was honored to meet Eddie and his Queen Anne Marie Feigner who magically managed, played on the team and lovely cared for aging Eddie. Thank you, King, and Queen! For many decades you traveled the world bringing love, laughter and wonder to all. "

Eddie Feigner-The King of The King and His Court Four Man Softball Team was my husband. He is now in Heaven.

He was on tour for 9 months of the year for 61 years. I, Mrs. Anne Marie Feigner-The Queen had to take over our family business due to King’s health issues for over 10 years while was wheelchair bound. I was his caregiver 24 hours a day!

 

All of our performances were dedicated to every type of Charity; including Churches! Most importantly, we performed at More United States Military Installations; Domestic and Around the World than any other person/s through MWR (Morale, Welfare and Recreation.)

Eddie refused to work with the USO that makes money off of our troops.

 Our intentions are to continue assisting Benefactors that means so much to me and on my husband’s behalf.

ALL four have their own links and ALL donations go directly to them!
