I am saddened to have lost a good friend of Auburn University and the Beef Cattle Community. Ned was such a postive influence in so many lives. I sense that God greated him with "well done good and faithful servant". I am so proud to have known him and appreciated his support of my professional research and outreach programs at Auburn. Wishing peace and blessings to the whole family.

To the family of Mr. Ned and especially Thomas, Beverly and I were very fond of your father. He always treated us as if were his best friends, even though we mostly just saw him at pecan meetings. Years ago in New Orleans, probably at a Southeastern Pecan Growers meeting, we were eating at Brennan's with a group and your Dad bought your pecan pie for everyone at the table. Of course it was delicious! He and my father were good friends and I know you will miss him as much as I do mine. Larry and Beverly Willson
