Humble Beginning. Bright Future.

His wife, Linda, continues to carry that same energy, frequently visiting the Waite Park, Sartell, St. Cloud, Rice, and Little Falls locations. Together, Bob and Linda always prioritized supporting their employees and customers, whether it meant stocking shelves, helping with carry-outs, or providing friendly service.

Thanks to the Feulings’ leadership, Westside Liquor has grown into a tight-knit team of loyal, long-time employees who share a deep commitment to customer service. From carrying out large purchases to studying trade publications during breaks to better assist customers, the team embodies the work ethic Bob inspired.

“My people know they have to do better than our competition,” Bob often said.

Bob’s legacy lives on through his family, including his two daughters and one son, who continue to play active roles in the business. Bob believed in leading like a great coach—always present, always listening, and always pushing for excellence.

“A coach doesn’t go home. He stays for every minute of the game, and he coaches up to the last minute of the game,” Bob once shared. “The coach listens to his players—to their problems and what they’re thinking—and then he has to make some decisions.”

Bob’s enduring spirit and philosophy continue to guide Westside Liquor today, shaping the future of the family business and the community it serves.
