I am so sorry for your loss.
Liz, you probably don't remember me, but I worked with Neil at Taylor Mechanical years ago. I have never, and will never, forget what he has taught me, both business-wise and personally, as in how to be a good person, husband, and father.
God bless you Neil.
God bless your family as well.

May all of the memories with Neil bring smiles to your faces, as much as they do mine. A long time ago, we grew up together, and tragically, grew apart, as either of us did not contact each other for an extreme long time. None the less, I remember when we had fun, when we learned from mistakes, when we learned how to treat others as we wanted to be treated, when we each would give our shirts off our backs and hand them to someone in need - may you understand that these are the things that your loved one chose to live by .Neil, here is to you. May you and I remember the "Baddest" fondly, until the day I die. May you find solace in the lessons I know that you have taught, and of the lessons you learned, may I find solace in the friendship that you returned.
Love always, Bob

There are no words to take away your pain and no words to explain why we lost Neil. But I know that he will live on every day in all our hearts. In our hearts he will be with us forever.

Neil and I only worked together for three years at Austin Sales. He was the first person I worked with when I started there. I was only twenty at the time, but he taught me everything I needed to know to make me the worker I am today. I am deeply sorry for your loss.
