Dear Rachel, Gary, and Laura
I don't know whether you believe me or not, Neil was on my mind the whole of yesterday, so, I was just going to text Dagmar( Derek"s mom) to ask her about the month of Neil"s passing when I saw the email. How time flies but Neil, being who he was, will never be out of our thoughts. As you might know, I only knew him for a short span, I was lucky to be with him all the time.

Rachel and Gary,

Elizabeth and I were very saddened to learn about your completley unexpected loss of Neil. Although we have lived for about 15 years with Erik-Lars' illness, I have long considered that we are much more fortunate than those parents who received that unexpected call. It is hard to imagine the shock and grief, but I hope you can cherish the great moments. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Dear Rachel and Gary,

We are thinking of you so much today as our son, Matt, and Neil's other close friends from Oberlin are attending his memorial service. Matt has told us so much about Neil, about what an amazing person he was and how much he was loved by his friends. Our hearts are with you at this time of unbearable loss. We send you our love and prayers.

I am the mother of a friend of Neil's, Jen Dohne. I am so very sorry for your loss. Jen has been so devastated by the loss of her compassionate, warm and brilliant friend. I just want you to know that Jen cared very deeply for Neil because of who he was. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Rachel and Gary:

We have been thinking about you and wish to send you our deepest condolences in the lost of Neil.

We heard from Chris and Daniela whose daughter Yara was a close friend of Neil how much he was loved and admired by his friends. May your memories of Neil continue to bring you comfort.

We share one, in your kitchen in Madison WI: Gary cutting peanut butter and jelly sandwiches in geometric shapes for Laura and Neil. Our daughter Joey was 3...

Rachel -- I'm so sorry for your sad news, which I just heard. I share your sorrow.

Dear Rachel and Gary,

We are deeply saddened to hear about your loss. Our thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time.
