Neil Robert Sakow

After all of these years, I still remember Neil with joy and a smile.

I still remember Neil and talk about his bubbly happy personality.

I still think of him and of his wonderful collection of memories

I knew Neil. I worked at Suburban Pharmacy and he frequent there.
He really was a character, but a good spirit and a good sole.
Rest in peace Neil.

I think of Neil more than you might suppose since I only knew him casually, but he was a really genuine person with a great heart and a wonderful story to share.

It's hard to believe that 6 years have passed since Neil was among us. I can't remember when he first hired me to do publicity for him, but I will never forget the zeal with which he showed me around his museum. The fact that he had saved toys and games in their original boxes bowled me over! He was one-of-a-kind, and his spirit continues to live on.

It was ironic that Neil collected memorabilia since he was literally "one of a kind". I loved hearing him sing the advertising jingles. He couldn't carry the tune, but he did know the words. His joyful sprit will be missed.

Neil and Barry as "Leaders" in Simsbury fed all my childhood retail needs - from toys of course hardware for contraptions to the chemistry section that I'm sure made me happier than it did my parents. Thanks for many memories and for being a staple of that small town for so many years.

Sorry to hear about Neil the Dream. I used to work at the kingswood market in west hartford. Neil came in all the time and immediately got all the employees smiling by telling jokes & singing jingles. What a great personality he had. West Hartford needs more residents like Neil.
