On November 1st, 2009 we lost the person that taught us the true meaning of unconditional love, Robert M. Neal, our dad, Paca, husband, and friend. He was a storyteller, a lover of poetry, and a rescuer of animals. He had a compassionate heart and would notice the needs of others, quietly taking action, never wanting recognition. You had a way of telling us just what we needed to hear. We will miss sitting around the dinner , the smell of your cigars, the sawdust from your shop, and having the stereo blasting. Raised in Des Moines by his dad and mom, George and Ada Neal, he and his sister Janice spent their childhood running wild. His parents adored him as did his pet rat, Stuart Little, and Petey the owl. Shortly after his 17th birthday he dropped out of high school to join the Marines and served in the Korean War; Semper Fi! Joining the Seattle Police Department in 1961, he spe4 years working at a job he loved and working with people he loved even more. He served in the Army Reserve for 24 years, retiring as a Chief Warrant Officer. Activated for Desert Storm in 1991, his unit provided security for dignitaries including Colin Powell and Dick Cheney. He is survived by his wife of 16 years, Dee Anne Neal, his daughters Kimberly and Stacy, their mother Sharon, his grandsons, Daniel and Ryan, and his many wonde friends. Tell Denise we love her. Heres to your fierce strength, unequalled toughness and kind heart.We love you, XOXOA committal ceremony will be held Tuesday November 10th at 10:00 am at Tahoma National Cemetery, 18600 SE 240th St. in Kent, WA.
