To Tim, Myles, Lenore and Kellie,
My deepest sympathies on the loss of my dear friend. Memories go back to days in West Newbury, MA and all the fun we had there and then continued until his passing. I will surely miss him and will pray for Neil as well as his family and hope it will help to know just how much Neil was loved by all who knew him.

To the Family of Neil Howland,

I would like to express my deepest sympathy for the loss of a dear man. I knew Neil and his wife for many years from Grason Landing. They were the nicest people you would want to know. I remember the winters and seeing Neil in the parking lot just getting back from skiing. He would always ask me if I had a chance to go up north. He was so full of life. He will be missed.
