I have fond memories of Neil back to St. Bernard College. He also was instrumental in my getting a job in the Accounting Department at Chemstrand (Monsanto) in 1965. Over the years, we stayed in contact and was always the same day in and day out. A true friend to me for many, many years.

Neil and I go back to St. Bernard College in the late 1950's. In 1965 there was an opening in the Accounting Department at Chemstrand in Decatur, Al. and Neil suggested that I apply for it. The rest is history and I went to work shortly thereafter and I know without a shadow of a doubt that Neil was instrumental in my getting the job. He was truly a good co-worker and friend over many, many years. He will truly be missed.

I always enjoy the friendship with Neil, a good coworker and friend. Remember the time that He let me put a joke on his daughter after coming back from Fla, and also the times that asked him about going on vacation and he always said that he can't because he has to take care of the cows; my response was: let the bull take care of the cows when you are on vacation. My condolences to the entire family. Pedro

Fond memories of the time we spent at Monsanto plant in Decatur.
I still have the Stetson Neil gave me 30 years ago. Rarely worn these days but a great memory item.
Rest in peace my friend.

Neil was a true Lion's Lion! He wholeheartedly believed in the principles of Lionism and spent the majority of his life serving others and giving back to the community. He will definitely be missed by the Cullman Lions Club. Clark, I will be out of town this weekend but you and all of the family will be in my thoughts and prayers. May God give you comfort during this period of grief. Rest assured that Neil is in a much better place and is at peace with his Heavenly Father. God bless your family.
