Survivors include his parents; a brother, Jason Neal; a nephew, Landon Neal; grandparents, Dan and Nancy McCann; many aunts, uncles, and cousins; and many wonderful friends.
He was preceded in death by his grandmothers, Martha Neal and Mamie McCann; his great-grandparents; and an aunt, Cathy McCann.
