Dear Sharon: I was very saddened when I heard of Robin's passing in today's Campus Notices. I always enjoyed running into Robin on campus or around town and his witty comments and interactions. He brings back pleasant memories. I'm sure you will miss him terribly, but am sure wonderful memories will sustain you. My thoughts are with you. John

Professor Neill taught me in the early 70's and his sense of humour, obvious interest in the material and his students helped convince me to major in Economics. He positively shaped the lives of many during his career.
