Wonderful Lady
I just wanted to thank you for all the love and attention you have given not only to your children, but also to the neighborhood children in Woodlawn. Growing up, I always considered you as a second mom. You were such a wonderful lady. I know Monica was there to greet you with open arms as you entered into eternal life in heaven. You will be missed by so many people. Rest in peace Mrs. Neal.
So sorry for your loss
Dear Mr. Neal, Bill, Charles, Johnny, Martha, Jeannie, Patti and the entire Neal family,
You have my very deepest sympathy for the loss of your wife and mother. I have grown to love the Neal family over the past 15 years. You guys are a wonderful group of souls and reflect the love and guidance that your mom, the family matriarch as you so eloquently stated in her obituary, has instilled into your family unit. May your memories of her sustain you and fill the void in your hearts. God Bless.
With love and light…Sam Pantano
Rest in Heaven
Grandma, we are all going to miss you down here on Earth but I am sure Monica was waiting for you at the top of the steps with arms wide open for a hug and welcoming you Home. Miss and love you.
