To the family of Neil: I just read the obit today. I am sorry for your loss. Neil and I were school mates in the Pier at Holy Redeemer. He and I were the glass alley champions as children at the school. He was a very courageous young man and he and I got into a few spats during those years. lol. That was a long time ago.
Eternal rest grant unto him O Lord and let perpetual light shine upon him.
