Neil Regan Obituary

Neil Regan

Neil Regan, 70, of Phoenix, AZ passed away on March 14, 2021. Neil was born March 6, 1951 and raised in Westwood, MA. Shortly after graduating from Harvard University in 1973, he moved to Phoenix and never looked back. Neil is survived by his wife Maggie, Sons Jack (Maggie) and Luke (Kadee), Sister Lisa (Paul), nephews, nieces and countless friends.

Neil loved nothing more than spending time with his family and friends, and could always be seen having a good time. He enjoyed Hiking, Camping, Golfing, and listening to the Grateful Dead. He loved finding the path less taken, whether it was an unestablished hiking trail or some desert on the golf course you could only find with the yips. He was a caring father, a loving husband, and a loyal friend who will be dearly missed.

A celebration of his life will be held later this year. In lieu of flowers, a donation can be made to the Boys and Girls club of Arizona or your local community.

Fare you well, fare you well, I love you more than words can tell.

I never had the pleasure of meeting Neil in person, but I have so enjoyed Neil and Maggie's adventures they have shared on Facebook. Life with Neil looks to have been a wonderful adventure for Maggie and their sons. May your path continue to embrace the memory of Neil and the love of life, family and friends you both shared. Take care, Karen and DJ

Damn't! I had many more questions (in general) to ask of Neil. I/we must cary-on in his good, good memory, yes.
