Neil was raised on a cotton farm near Idalou, TX.  While working the fields as a young boy, he would always stare up at the sky daydreaming of becoming a pilot of an airplane one day.  Early in his adult life, Neil got his pilot license and became an instructor pilot, then became the Corporate Pilot for Shurgro Irrigation Company in Lubbock, TX.  Later, he went to work for the Federal Aviation Administration as an Air Traffic Controller, where he retired at the Lubbock Facility in 1995.  After Retirement, he, his wife Kay, and his daughters’ family moved to Terrell County, TX, and went into the sheep ranching business for 10 years, and then finally moved to San Angelo, TX, in 2006. 
Papa loved living in the desert of West Texas with the rocks, cacti, cedar, mesquite, hills, and canyons, just West of the Pecos River.  His awesome bonfires and frequent firepit gatherings were some of our greatest memories.  He loved to visit the mountains in New Mexico, enjoyed the horse races, loved challenging his mind with puzzles, enjoyed old movies, was a total history buff, and he especially enjoyed a round of (his all-time favorite) Chivas Regal Scotch.
Daddy was a great man of honor and integrity.  He never quit reminding us of the absolute importance of striving to live our own lives with honor and integrity.  Daddy would say, “No one is perfect, especially not me, but with each lesson learned, I promise you will become the absolute greatest person you could possibly be.  In the end, you will know and feel the greatest love in your heart and be able to rest with great pride and dignity.  BUT, only YOU can make that happen.”
Throughout his 78 years of life, Neil earned a well-deserved nickname/title known by his family, best friends, and all others that knew and loved him dearly, as “The Man, The Myth, The Legend!”  and That says it all, folks.
A graveside celebration of Neil’s life will be held March 18, 2023, 3:30 pm at the Idalou Cemetery in Idalou, TX.
