To the family. Not many of u know me. Iam Lowell Dean Wilcox’s 2nd daughter!! Neal has always been called Uncle Neal by me. Yes, he is of course my cousin. He was seriously loved by my father and my sister Audrey, who has preceeded him to Heaven!! While growing up young, Neal took care of us. I have fond memories from Camp Lejeune. He would sit us, we weren’t babies. I was a problem, always running off. My sister was the better kid to care for.
May God Bless U and keep U
