I am so shocked and heartbroken to hear this
I have so many great memories of Neil from when we worked at the quorn grange hotel..
Such a great man..sending all my love to his family..

Heartbroken and shocked to hear this. Neil was so lovely and kind and helped me through some rubbish times at work by supplying the chocolate! Thoughts are with his close friends and family are this really sad time, sending all my love. Rest in peace, Neil xx

Neil. I first met you when I moved to Syston from Melton and you were a neighbour. You were my wife's friends husband. We spoke and instantly became friends. After that we shared many a walk, many a pint and plenty of laughs and giggles. I worked with you landscaping and you worked with me gardening. You since remarried the lovely Helen. We still met every so often sometimes in passing to catch up. You again went self employed when your old job didn't go according to your happiness. We were due to meet to network but it was never to be. I'm truly gutted. Not only myself but for you, your wife, your dad, your brother and I know of your many friends. I'm going to really miss you friend. I'll always remember you. Thank you for everything you ever did for me, the help, the advice, the laughs, the friendship. Love you mate. X

I got to know Neil when we worked together at Quorn Grange and he always threw himself into the challenges that the site threw at him with a cheeky smile and an open heart, he will be missed by his former colleagues at the GFTU and Quorn Grange Hotel who are all saddened to hear of Neil's death at such an early age. We are thinking of his family and friends at this very sad time and hope that time will heal what must be a very raw feeling inside for Helen and both families. Ian, Neil's line manager at the GFTU. x
