Dear Mrs. Shuckerow and Family,
We were so sorry to hear of the passing of Neil. While we did not know him well, we enjoyed being patrons of the restaurant he owned and those who worked there. We were always greeted as familiar and welcome faces when we went there.
May he rest in peace and may time heal your pain of loss.

About Neil,
Neil was one of those special principled idealistic people whose calling was to be an entrepeneur. He lived according to his faith and his life on this training world of Earth will be called a success. This is not the end of his life, but only the beginning of his eternal journey of love.

Neil was my very special friend. We enjoyed many hours out in Prince William Sound on his boat fishing, and just enjoying the scenery. I know that he will be greatly missed by me and my family.
