Not sure what to say?

A fine lawyer and a fine man, a true gentleman in every sense of the word!

Neal was a gentleman in every way. He knew how to make you feel welcome in his presence. I had the privilege of knowing Neal in business and at his church. He was a profound soul-my condolences to his wife Linda and family.

A great man and very astute. He was the kindest of men. Glad to have met him. Greg Stadler

To the man who swam "Crystal Rapid" with me, I offer praise and honor in the name of Jesus Christ.

No words can express our sadness at not being able to be in Houston to honour the loss of our dear friend, Neal. Our time will come to join him in Peace. Andrea & Gordon Robinson

Neal and I were married for a very short time in the 60's. The marriage didn't take, but the friendship endured. I always had the greatest respect for his integrity and his wit. He was a loyal and kind presence in my parents' lives (Mary Eileen and Dick Dobson) for more than fifty years. Thanks and gratitude for many memories. RIP, Neal.

I first met Neal when we were amongst the crew, sailing on Galveston Bay in 1970. He had the halliard for mail sail and it slipped through his hands. The result... the boom dropped on my head (explains a lot... doesn´t it..!!.). Since then we were close friends. My wife, Andrea, came to view Neal as a Brother..!! RIP Neal.

I was also blessed to have attended a few gourmet dinners at Neil and Linda´s, the food was out of this world and the conversations always stimulating. It was always the three...Don, Neil and Mary Lou. I looked...
