The Harnett High School Class of 1964 extends its heartfelt condolences to the family of our classmate John Thomas Mcneill. John was admired and respected by us. He was supportive of all class functions and kept in close touch with many of us and would drive home as much as he could to attend funerals of departed classmates. He supported all class reunions financially even when he could not attend. He also kept in close contact with many of us by telephone, especially when he was driving trucks across the country. John had a zest for life and it was so good to be in his presence. He will be deeply missed by each of us. We know the family has so many good memories and he will be forever in your hearts, as well as in ours. May the Good Master wrap his loving arms around each of you and give you the comfort and strength you may need. Soar high John.

I am praying for you. I have fond memories of the many Saturday evenings we spent at Cousins Daisy Lee and Margaret's house.

We will miss you, Uncle JT! Good times, great memories!
Vicki Spears and family!
