Bernhard H. Neitzel Jr.

My wife Stephanie and I were deeply saddened by the passing of Uncle Bernie. We feel blessed to have had a very nice visit with him in late July when we shared information on our genealogical work on the Neitzel family which he appreciated. Uncle Bernie carried on a long Neitzel tradition of striving for excellence and perfection in all that he did along with solid conservative values and beliefs. His legacy, however, will be for his kindness, generosity and concern for others, and his strong...

Bernie and Shirley were like a second set of parents to me. We lived up the street and for years growing up I would help them with their lawn and gardening.

Bernie was one of the kindest persons I've ever met, and most assuridly the funniest. I'll always remember Summer afternoons working in the yard while pipe organ music could be heard coming from the house...and the oft used phrase "Just don't tell Mrs. Neitzel"

I'll miss you old friend.

My Father first met Barney in 1955 when they both started working for Thomson Mckinnon. Through the years they always kept in touch and my father always had great things to say about him and fun stories. My best to his family. I know my mom and dad will miss him dearly.

Bernie was a long time friend going back to the early 40's.We played cards and went to the same church .Also spent time at the lake cabin with his family.He was a warm person and good friend .He will be missed by all .Ken Hill Cook Minnesota

Barney will truly be missed. It was my pleasure to work with him over the years.
