I was thinking about Neil today because I believe it was his birthday on February 19th. My apologies if I'm wrong. In any case, Neil was a good friend to me during those tumultuous teenage years and we shared a lot of great times together. Although we were very different in character, Neil impressed me with his rock-solid steadiness. He could be incredibly stubborn, but it was always because of his principles and the things he believed in. He was a friend who could be trusted and although he wasn't a social butterfly, he was extremely well-liked by all of us who knew him. He was a good man and will be missed. RIP my friend.
