Not sure what to say?

grandad, I wish I met you now. You'd be so proud of the person I am and who I'm becoming.

I too, just became aware of this very sad news. Mr. Harlan was a kind, generous, and obviously very talented man. My thoughts and prayers go out to his lovely family and wonderful wife. I know his smile and legacy live on in each of you. Thank you Neil for being so special.

I have just now learned of Mr. Harlan's passing. He was my second father. Words are inaccurate to describe what he, Mrs. H and Sarah mean to me. I very clearly remember him strumming his guitar and singing Garden Party (while I sang along and Sarah rolled her eyes!). Mr. Harlan was kind, generous and patient. And as far as I could tell, was the epitome of an awe-inspiring dad. I was very lucky to be a part of that village

He was generous, patient, kind and will always be one of my favorite people.

My name is Dennis Hudson and I worked at McKesson Drug in Arlington Texas for 23 years. I am a past winner of the Neil Harlan Award for community service. I really appreciate Mr. Harlan and his commitment to his community. He will be missed!!

Neil was a special person. He had the native ability to bring a team together to accomplish great things. I will always remember the years I was able to work with him at McKesson. More than just a great manager, he was a great person who took an interest in your family. He was one of a kind.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in this time of great loss. I worked for and with Neil for many years at McKesson. He was an inspirational leader to me and many others as well as a good friend.

My deepest sympathies to the family. I had the privilege to work with Neil for many years.
