Gods Speed Neil!
My deepest sympathy regarding Neil's passing. Neil was a mentor and fishing buddy. He will be missed. I would love to visit with Ann if available. I can be reached at 701-799-8088.

My condolences regarding the passing of Neil. His obituary was in the Fargo paper. I was his graduate student at NDSU and the primary care physician for both Neil and Ann. We had many great times together working, teaching and fishing. I tried to connect with him after he left the east coast of Florida but was never able to locate. I owe him a great deal as my teacher and friend. I would love to visit with Ann if possible. Again, my deepest sympathies.
We were saddened to hear of Neil's passing. He was an excellent neighbor and friend. Always in a good mood, he was a knowledgeable and ready conversational gentleman. Our best wishes to the family.
