Dear Margie and Family,
We are so very very sorry to learn of dear Cousin Neil's passing. He was such a sweet and gentle giant, especially to us younger cousins who remember him as the big tall handsome young man in our family. He always treated us with such patience and kindness. Thank all of you for being there for Neil all these years. All the TLC you gave him was such a blessing. May Neil now rest, safe in the loving arms of our Lord.
With love always,
Cousins Linda & Tony Barnes & Family
