Neal was born in Hartwell on June 14, 1937, son of the late Jasper Floyd and Annie Evelyn Blair Floyd. He was a member of New Bethel United Methodist Church and retired from the Georgia Department of Transportation where he worked as a road superintendent.

Surviving are his brother and sister-in-law, Harry Burt and Janet Floyd of Elberton; sister, Carol Waters Richardson of Calhoun Falls; brother-in-law, James B. “Buddy” Adams, Jr. of Elberton; and a host of other relatives and friends.
The family will receive friends on Saturday, February 14, from 10:00-10:45a.m. at New Bethel United Methodist Church. Funeral services, officiated by the Rev. Richard Jarvis, will follow at 11:00a.m. Burial will be in the church cemetery.
