Gylmar Neves Obituary
The Brazilian soccer federation said Sunday that Neves had been hospitalized since last week after complications from the heart attack.
Neves also was on Brazil's team during the 1966 World Cup, but it was in the two previous tournaments that his career peaked. He was Pele's teammate at Santos and also played for Brazilian club Corinthians. His health had weakened after sustaining a stroke in 2000.
Right back De Sordi, another member of the 1958 squad, died Saturday at age 82 following multiple organ failure.
Defender Djalma Santos, who also played for Brazil's winning team in 1958 and 1962, died in July.

This was truly an amazing person with so much talent the loss is clearly ours. Prayers fill our hearts while singing praises to God asking him to let us never forget the love we have for this wonderful person gone from our lives never forgetting the joy we shared experiencing a great talent. Hebrews 6:10.

Nunca é fácil perder um ente querido na morte. Que o Deus da Comfort continuar a apoiar todos aqueles que estão sofrendo com essa perda. Nós olhamos para o futuro, quando podemos reunir-se com os nossos entes queridos.

Con eso, oí una voz fuerte desde el trono decir: “¡Mira! La tienda de Dios está con la humanidad, y él residirá con ellos, y ellos serán sus pueblos. Y Dios mismo estará con ellos.4Y limpiará toda lágrima de sus ojos, y la muerte no será más, ni existirá ya más lamento ni clamor ni dolor. Las cosas anteriores han pasado”.
