Dear Barb, My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. After meeting with you Saturday I was surprised at how quickly he passed. I hope all your family is able to be together at this time of loss. I hope to see you Friday afternoon at the service. Love to you and yours, Lois
To Bill Neal’s Family: We have so many wonderful memories of all our good times together. Most special are all the bridge games and all the trailer trips – especially the one to Canada. Mount Vernon will not seem the same. He will be greatly missed. Elaine and Susan
Peg and family: I read in today’s paper that your father had passed. I don’t know if you remember me or not, but we were roommates at UNI back in 1967. I have lived in Cedar Rapids for the past 30 years, and teach at Xavier High School. I am sorry to hear about your father and send you and all your family my sympathy. My prayers are with you, Barbara Glass
Dear Smitty and Family, Bill was a great guy and will be missed by so many people. Our deepest sympathy to all of you.
The Neal Family has been hit very hard this past year….. I just want you all to know that I am thinking of you all… and wish the best for you on picking up the pieces and healing. It is a tough road, Don Neal’s Widow, Di, and Don’s Family.
To Smitty & family: I was so sorry to hear of Bill’s passing. His passing happened to come in the middle of my trip to IA to bury my brother, Mike, after a long illness. It’s painful to lose our loved ones, but it can be such a blessing for their pain & suffering to end. We were so happy to know that Mike accepted Christ before he died. I’m leaving for home tomorrow, but I’ve already talked to Peg. Wish I had time to stay for the memorial. I enjoy both you and Bill, Smitty, when Peg & I were young women. Bill was a lot of fun. Our prayers and thoughts are with you and all the Neal family. Love, Jane
