Hi Tee:

We are so sorry to hear about Neil's passing. We found out about it a day too late otherwise, would have been there to support and share our love. I know he will be greatly missed. May God bless you.

Sorry to hear of Neil passing. I will miss his slow walk, smooth talk and his knowledge about the oldies. God bless and stay strong.

Dear Tee,

I had been saying a prayer every day for you and Neal for a long time, and I will continue to pray for you and your family. Like you said, we know that Neal is in a better place, and it is comforting for me to believe that he is now DJing the oldies for the other angels.

Love,

Gerri

Our prayers are with you and your family. I speak for the "crew" when I say that ALL of us will truly miss Neal. He was a wonderful friend and dj partner.

We love you.
