We first want to Thank You for being associated with us this year &
hopefully other events in the future. We are sorry about the weather, but
that is one thing we can't control. Setting in Church this am, it dawned on
me that in the past few months, we have lost due to death, some very
Professional vendors, Great Friends. & people we miss. They all taught me a
lot during the time I knew them. We would like to pay our respects to JP,
Neffy, Keith, & just this week Mr. Schmidt. I also personally lost one of my
and my son's best friends & acquaintance to many of you, My Beloved Dog
Zero, who worked with me daily. God is Good & we appreciate the time he
allowed us with our friends & our Friendship with you. See most of you in
Louisville, have a Good & Prosperous season & may God Bless!

My prayers go out to the Neff family, Mike was such a funny, nice, generous man. My husband and I met him through Musicians Against Childhood Cancer. He helped us every year prepare the hospitality area. I could not have pulled this off without him. He always managed to keep us laughing. He will be missed terribly. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Lenia, I am so very sorry to hear about Mike. Our husbands knew each other for years down at the fair grounds and at Polaris Ampatheater. I lost my husband Jeff Bellar almost 5 years ago due to a massive heart attack. I know Jeff considered Mike a true friend. My daughter Amy also knew Mike and thought so highly of him. My hope is our husbands have found each other again. Please take care of yourself and I am here if you ever need anything. Patti Bellar

My thoughts and prayers go out to the Neff family. It was truly a blessing to know Mike and even his beautiful wife. I truly enjoyed the time spent with him during my time at the Ohio Expo Center. My Dad and I both did. He expressed such great sympathy to me when I ran into him years after my Dad, Jeff, passed and I just wanted to express how truly honored it was to have known him. He was such a great man. Til we meet again on the other side.

My sympathy and love goes out to ms Lenia and the family. I love Mike with all my heart. He taught all five of my kids to be hard and honest workers.The fair will never be the same because Mike was the first one I visited when i went there:( his memory will always be a part of my daily life. I'm sure him and Casey are already on the way to find a pond to fish. R.I.P Neffy

Instead of sending my love or sad thoughts (because the Neff family knows how much I love them with all my heart) I'm going to send this final promise to Mike...I promise to keep your legacy in my heart everyday when I wake up and go to work I'm going to keep you with me!

My heart goes out to the whole family. My children & I have known Mike & Lenia & the majority of their family for so many years, they are family to us. And on a personal note. I feel honored for the love, care, and mentoring they bestowed upon my daughter. I will never be able to express the pride and gratefulness I feel for their kindness. Mike took Jen under his wing as if she were his own child. I love you both with all I have.
