January 5, 2014 at 2:25 pmDearest Peggy,
Tim and his family often referred to Neal as Tim’s “twin” cousin as they were born on the same day to their mothers who were twin sisters and they were both given the first name of John.
Neal will always be remembered and hold a special place in our hearts.
We are grateful for the years of love and devotion that you and Neal shared.
We trust that God will uphold you with his righteous right hand.
Tim and Debbie
