Not sure what to say?

i worked at bullys in del mar starting 1980 i probably met him that year when the track closed for the day. every year after that he was a fixture around town for the summer race meet i worked at bullys for 25 years so we saw a lot of each other even after i retired. i would let him drink as much as he wanted because i'd drive him back to his motel or condo i also worked at the race track for many years and we were always sharing bets on the horses. we had that in common, slow horses... you...

Mr. Smith was such a a kind man. May his soul rest in peace ! He barely knew me but when I was getting married, he called me and gave me $600 for my wedding. I used to give him rides in my ! He was such a good man. I will plant a tree in Africa and put his name on it.

We friends at Del Mar racetrack have just learned of Ned's passing. He was a joy to meet, and we looked forward to seeing him each season. He made friends fast and furious and was such a sweetheart. He will be greatly missed I am comforted by the belief that he and his wife are together again. Much love and condolences to his family and friends

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

A earily message had an incorrect contact number, the correct number is 850 598-6801

I met Ned in aspen co back in the 70´s along with Rick Scott & jimmy. My claim to fame is I named Milo butterfingers from the book catch 22. If any of our old friends are still around give me a call at 850 598-6901. Hope to hear from anyone cliff

Thanks for all of the memories before Milo´s. From Junior high, high school, our trip to Puerto Rico via New Orleans & Miami Beach, Las Vegas and sharing an apartment in Denver. I will always remember you strumming that acoustical guitar and singing all of the popular Folk Songs of those early 1960´s gatherings. RIP my friend and here´s to a life well done!!!

Ned was a great guy, always full of life! We had some really good times over the years, RIP

Ned , we never were great friends but we were friends. You were easy to like. See you again some day
