To Jason and the rest of the McNeely family, I was truly sorry to hear of John's passing. I have just heard today. John was a good friend to my husband and myself. We had a lot of laughs and good times. I am also from Warner Robins. Loved going to his parents house. Jason, I would love to catch up with you. So sorry for your loss. Sincerely, Cindy Floyd [email protected]

I will always remember Johnny and his kindness and laughter. . His sense of humor (he could always find a laugh in any situation) was always welcome. I know life and illness had dimmed his laughter but his sweetness and loving heart remained. He will be greatly missed.

The Mount de Sales community mourns as we learn of the passing of Johnny McNeely, our beloved classmate of MDS '65. Johnny and I shared an apt at Ga Southern in '66 & '67. He was a friend to me when I needed a friend. Johnny went to Vietnam and I believe graduated from Ga Southern. He was an Engineer for Grumman in Milledgeville. Cheers, Beers, and Tears for you old friend. You will not be forgotten.

I am saddened to have learned of the passing of Johnny. As a 1964-65 MDS classmate, I have abundant gratitude for his life and gifts and wonderful memories of times filled with his exuberant laughter, abiding love, and deep joy. Johnny's soul connection will continue with his MDS classmates, and we will ever give thanks for the timeless friend that he is to us all. I will keep his family in my heart and prayers.
