Not sure what to say?

4 years now without Neville Rich-what a sad world without him! Memorable rides with Neville on Oakey and me on Jake...we rode the top of Sonoma Mountain...what a privilege to live there, for me, 19 years. With lovely memories, Cynthia Boyer

Missing Neville 3 years now...we had great horseback rides on Sonoma Mountain - Neville road his trusty steed Oaky. I enjoyed making homemade chocolate (his favorite) ice cream for him.

Found this pic of my parents with Neville, and Bobbi and Herb Wiltsek....Missed all the time and never forgotten. Neville, Bobbi and Herb were very happy that day (Sept 27, 2003), as CAL beat USC in triple overtime.

2 years of missing Neville. Time passing on without Neville in this world is sad...glad he isn't here to witness what a mess his beautiful world has become

This came into my email today. Neville..I know my parents miss you much. I have fond memories discussing our profession together, and your and Lila's visits to see my parents house in Tahoe....A kind man who i am sure is missed deeply by all his friends and family.

"Dear Neville, April Foos Day will NEVER be the same. Did I miss the fact that you had a dark sense of humor?" You were the mighty Oak in my life...so kind and supportive and appreciative of my horse skills. I cherish the beautiful times we shared riding on the wooded slopes of Sonoma Mountain - my home and yours - so special. Your love and support of so many people in your life is testimony to your purpose in this life. You, the mighty Oak.

I remember him taking my sister and i on a horseback ride at their home in Sonoma, and his visits to my parents house in Lake Tahoe. A very kind man. Condolences to all family...

Neville was such a good family friend. Sorry to hear of his passing, but he had such a good life! All the best from the Owens family.

Regards,

Bradley

Neville and I had many fine rides on trails near his home on Sonoma Mountain. He rode his trusty big red horse, Oakey.

For his birthday some years ago I made a bracelet for him from Oakey's tail hair. It featured a silver slide with a bronze oak leaf--see enclosed photo.

He was a good friend and I will miss him terribly.
