As some of the bikers who journey to Myrtle Beach each year Neal and Pams was our favorite bar. They always treated us like family. We have lots of fond memories of Neal and everyone who worked there.
Pam,Aimee, Betty and the crew cherish the memories, not even time can take them away.

Neal was one of the nicest and most genuine people I have ever had the privilege to meet. I, my elderly father, Charles F. Brown, my scottie Saffron, would all go to Neal and Pam's. I don't know which of us was more excited to be there-all of us! Neal made each of us feel as if we were his favorite customer. Nelvis, you will be sadly missed. My deepest sympathies to Pam and the family. [email protected]

Neil and my Daddy (Dave Hardister) were great pals! Every trip home to beach - we spent a happy hour or two with Neil at the bar. I remember when the outside porch was built - so fun watching the bikers!!! I've never been to a more friendly and fun Christmas Eve party. Hugs to Pam, Aimee, and Pearl!!! God Speed Neil!!! You and Daddy pull for the Gamecocks on bowl day!!!

Neal gave me my first job in 1981 and has been a friend of my family since the 70's. Funniest man I ever met. You will be missed.
