I am so terribly sad to hear this.

Hi .

So sad to hear this devastating news. Rest in peace my dear childhood friend. I am blessed to have grown up with you. It's been wonderful to watch your growth and success with the music you loved so much. You amazed me and you will be remembered and missed forever.
sorry for those who knew him personally. His music has meant a lot to me and the recent opportunities to see him live came at a time when I needed it most. A big thank you to him for what he gave us.

I have known Neal since we were kids playing baseball together in Little League. I love his music. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family at this time.
I'm thankful to have watched and listened to Neil groove and grow over the years. He truly inspires my playing. So much was happening for him. Man I'm heartbroken. Love you Neil! Thank you for all you gave us! Your music will live on brother.

The next year he joined Blackfoot and I’ve loved listening to his music and following his career ever since. Music never became more than a past time to me but what I know I owe to him. Rest easy, maestro, and love to his family.
