Just wanted to let you all know, Neil is back in the store today. He's not 100% (then again when was he ever?) but he's back and will be here every day, or that's his plan. He's building his strength back up and will be in, hopefully, better shape in order to be here for years to come.
Thank you to all of you who reached out to check up on him. It meant a great deal.

I missed the back story - what happened to Neil? Heart attack a few weeks ago. Big wake up call for him to start treating himself better, eat better, be more active.

Good news! I was/am worried about him. Everybody needs to take better care of themselves, something I have been working on the past 3 months based on my own health along with several people I know like Neil.

I didn't know that. In all the times I have dealt with CL, Neil is the only one I've dealt with. Good guy with a good sense of humor. I am glad he is is on the mend.

Talked to him on the phone once - courteous, knowledgeable, professional - a real treat to talk to.
So glad he's back!

On one of the calls I had with Neal, he said they spelled his name Kneel around the shop, to give him grief in good fun. We broke off into a conversation for a few minutes when Neal said, "Hey, I can get this in the mail today if I get it boxed up in the next 10 minutes."Solid guy you have there Doug. I had a shipping notification very shortly thereafter.

How did his career change come about? If you're at liberty to say.
