Today like so many other days I remember my wonderful friend, Charles Neeley. Not a day passes that I don’t think of you and Mrs. Karen. I love and miss you both so much. I miss getting to talk to you and to hear your stories. It always made me smile to see your name pop up on my caller ID when you’d call. My family and I are so blessed to have had you in our lives. You’re loved and missed more than you’ll ever know and even though it saddens me that you’re gone, I’m so thankful you’re at peace and for the time we had with you guys. Thank you for everything my dear friend. God bless.

I always loved and respected Mr. Neeley. He was kind, always helpful and called me his girl. He and Mrs. Karen treated me like I was their own and they will never know how much I love them. I cherish the memories I have been blessed to have of them. Mr. Neeley was like a father to me and I'm forever grateful that I knew him. God speed, Mr. Neeley, thank you for being you. I sure do miss you.
