Dear Neal and Family,
It has been a long time since I saw you but I think of you often. You were the kind of football and baseball plyer that all coaches admire. I know that this is a sad time and nothing that I can say will ease the pain. I lost my daughter and I know the pain that you have. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
