Dear Colleen and Lobe family,

I am happy to say I had the pleasure of knowing Neil and sharing some good stories and laughs with him and I am terribly sorry for your loss. He had an easy going way about him but was serious when he needed to be.

I pray that God will bring you comfort and strength during this time of great sadness. May His love and grace touch you and keep you today and in the days to come.
I will miss Neil very much and even though our time visiting was only a few times a year, I am grateful to have shared those conversations with him.

Bud was remembering when Neil used to go hunting up in the N. pasture. He would ride the horse called Norman after Norman Krell.They would "camp" out in the double wide & had a great time. We're so sorry that the Lord choose to take him at such a young age.We're praying for you as you now start your life life without him.Had a very nice service & tribute to him. Bud & Gerry King

My heart breaks for you and your family Colleen. To lose a husband who was also your best friend and companion is too much to bear. I suppose some day the pain subsides but for now, be gentle with yourself and know that many hold you close in your grief. I am so very sad. My deepest sympathy.

Colleen, Where do we begin? We've had a long journey with Neil, but it wasn't as long as we would have liked. So many good times, so many talks, and always lots of laughter. We are here for you, Landon and family.
God will be with you until the end of time and I know Neil is laughing that familiar "Lobe Laugh" in Heaven now. Much love, Gary & Terri
