Hugh Neal Darby

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

Neal was a good friend. We were together from 7th grade at Sanger through our graduation from Bryan Adams. He was an encouraging person, John Shankles,, Class of 1967

I was thinking about Neal recently. I remember that it was about this time a year ago that he passed away. He was a good friend beginning in 7th grade at Alex Sanger Elementary School. I wish that I could have kept in better touch with friends from my younger years. We all moved around so much after high school that we lost track of each other. John Shankles, BA Class of 1967

Although I didn't know Hugh, I just wanted to tell the family and friends how sorry I am for the loss of your loved one. Please know that your family will be in my prayers. (John 11:1-44)

I love that photo of my dad. I'm not sure who posted that, but I would love to get in touch with you to get a copy of that great photo--thank you for posting it!

John, thank you for coming to the graveside services today. I know Neal's mother, and I, were both so glad that you attended. Take Care, Darby

I am sorry to hear of Neal's passing. We were good friends at Sanger Elementary School and Gaston Junior High. We were at Bryan Adams High School together, but were not in the same classes. After graduating from Bryan Adams in 1967, I lost touch with most of my friends from high school and earlier. I remember Neal was a good friend and I enjoyed the time we spent together. John Shankles, Bryan Class of 1967
