William Neal Watson

To the family and wife of Neil Watson, I worked with him from the time I started in the mill. Was great to have known him all these years. I will cherish the great memories I have and will greatly miss him.

I didn’t know Neil but anyone related to Mark and Janna has got to be wonderful person. God Bless Him and your families….Mike Akers

I Went to School with Neal, and consider him a good friend and a Great Family Man. I am so sorry to hear of his passing, I know he was fighting a monumental fight with Cancer. I know that he fought a good fight but in the end the Cancer that made him suffer got the best of him. He now is suffering no more and is not of this World anymore. Neal my friend we will meet again and I will be looking forward to that Meeting.

From Neals sister:

Sherry (Watson) Cunningham

My dearest brother I cherish all the memories of being able to spend 61 years with you. You were brave beyond words to fight the great fight. I miss you more than words can say. I love you forever and always. Your sister, Sherry….P.S. Say hi to mom

Dear Janna..Sorry to hear about the passing of Neal. Just wanted to send you this note of deepest sympathy. Knew he had been ill for some time. Been a long time since our WSX days. God Bless…Mike Rizzo, Largo, Fl(small world).

The Watson Family are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Take comfort that Neal is no longer in pain and has joined Millie in a better place.

To all of my Watson family I send my love and prayers. You have all suffered right by Neal’s side and I pray that as Neal is at peace now, that somehow you will all find peace in this world. It is a difficult and sad time now. But Neal will live on in all of you… Everyone he touched, and he touched many lives. God bless Neal. God bless you all, Uncle Bill, Sherry, Greg , Mark, Scott, Kim, Staci, and Janna. I love you.

For the last 2 years I have watched Neal suffer terribly. But he still maintained that great sense of humor. He fought so hard and really tried to beat his cancer. He has been like a brother to me and I will miss him terribly, even though I know he is now pain-free and at peace.

Scott and Watson Family,

We are so sorry for the loss of your brother. Please know that you all are in our thoughts an prayers.

Warm regards,

Joe and Jill Jordan

Dear Bill & Watson Family ~ know that you are in my thoughts and prayers at this time of your great loss. Neil put up a great fight. However, it was greater than him. He will always continue to be with you in your heart and memories. Know that he is in a much better place. He is pain-free and at peace in the loving arms of his first true love ~ his mother. May God Bless You All

Janna and family, I am so sorry to hear of Neal’s passing. He was a very nice person and I am so glad I had the chance to know him. I did not know he was ill however, now he no longer is in pain. You are all in my thoughts. Take care

Neal,

I missed you before you left us! These last year’s have been very hard in many ways….the hospital stays, the wheelchair, and all the rest….

But, I also remember our friendship. The wonderful, fun times we’ve shared. With others and just you and I. WV and FL. The early FL years were great!!

.

The years went by too fast….

I’ve learned, and you and I spoke of it….life is just not fair at times.

Love you always,

Your friend Bobby!!

While we mourn his loss, and that of yours Janna, we are content in knowing Neal is no longer suffering. He has shown much courage and will during his long battles with his failing health. He is a great example to all of us on endurance, and patience.

We will remember the strong lovely man he was. We cherish the beautiful memories of our favorite Florida vacation spent with Neal and Janna. Neal, thank you for being a dear friend. Janna we love you!
