He picked-up his first guitar at 11 years old and never stopped playing it his entire life. Neil and friends started a musical group in High School named True Witness and they played everywhere they could. He loved the music scene and Old country music, but rock-a-billy was his first choice. Hundreds of friends on Facebook are posting in memory of Neil.
