It´s hard to believe you´re gone. I will remember so many things, but for some reason my favorite is when you´d say something and then say, "didn´t I sound just like Scott!"! You guys were always alike in your efforts to make people laugh.
The kids all adored you and loved Uncle Nealio.
Thank you for the good times. I´m glad we were able to be there for you when you needed us.
I love you.

Haven't seen Neal for a number of years, but have fond memories of him growing up in Garden City. He was athletic and smart, but I most enjoyed two of his other qualities - his wit and humor. He could always get a laugh out of me and others. Carol and I send our deepest condolences to all those in his family, but most of all to Scott and Nancy, who have lost a treasured brother. For those who knew Neal, he will surely be missed, but just as surely, never forgotten. RIP, my friend.

So many childhood memories - great stories - two brothers building "Santa traps" - a kinship that lasts forever even when far apart - always close in heart. Our phone calls were the best and always had something to laugh about! I will miss those calls. Neal may be gone but memories are forever. I will miss you Neal and love you.

So many fun memories of Uncle Neal, "the manager." He was so talented and encouraged all of us kiddos to embrace our musical selves. I loved hearing him tell stories of past times; can still hear his laugh. Uncle Neal inspired me to be a vegetarian for one stretch of adult life, and he encouraged my interest in counter-culture when we'd talk and email in my college years. So much intelligence, so much love.
