TO THE FAMILY OF NEAL BLEDSOE:
I am sorry for the loss of your father and grandfather. I knew Neal through Irene and remember serving with them on many committees at our complex. I also remember sharing a Christmas get together at their home several years ago. They were a positive team to the growth of our community and put many hours of volunteer time to the enhancement of our complex. You and your family are in my prayers at this time.

To the family of Neal Bledsoe,
Our thoughts and prayers go out to everyone of you. Harry and I were lucky to know both Neal and Irene since 1994, when he moved to Dana Point Condo's. He was on a committe with me, Carol for several years. He was very detailed and considerate.
My husband and I enjoyed visiting with him in August, we heard alot about his life and especially about his dearly departed Irene. He was sure lost without her, now they are together, probably going to the casinos.
He will truly be missed.
