Our beloved cousin will be greatly missed as he was so gentle, loving, kind, strong, a model and mentor to so very many. Our temporary loss is heaven's gain. He is now healthy and free of pain. My prayers and love to Jill, Aunt Pauline and Uncle Sam, Sheryl, Josh, John and families.

Jill…the saying “treat others as you would like to be treated” is what comes to mind when I think of Neil. He was kind, gentle, soft spoken and I know in all the years I’ve worked with him he “never” treated anyone unkindly. We often talked, laughed and shared experiences and he was always open to giving me
words of advice about my career at Muskegon Community College. I once asked him, “The students have counselors when they need help, who do we have?” With a smile he said “Each other.” I too will miss Neil. You are part of the MCC family and we are all here for you and your family, with love and prayers. John##imported-begin##John J Morano##imported-end##
Neil has been a wonderful example for us all here at MCC. His kind loving manner always had time to listen and his introduction of yoga on the campus was also my first experience with yoga. He will be missed. May God bless.##imported-begin##Kathy Tosa##imported-end##
