Passed away peacefully at home with his wife by his side, on Thursday October 11, 2018 at the age of 78 years.
Retired principal from the Waterloo County Regional School Board.
Beloved husband of Judy (nee Hollings). Loving father of Stephanie (Kyle Long), C. David Turner (Catherine née Cardiff) and Melissa Turner (Jamie Nicolaichuk).

Dear brother of Penny (Terry Krawchyk) Merle (John O’Sullivan), Faith (Frank Hieblinger) Charmaine (Lee Smith) and dear friend of Jef and Cheryl Fry. Predeceased by his sister Carolyn.
Will be missed by a large extended family, as well as many friends and colleagues. Neil spent many years enjoying quality family time on the farm outside of St. Agatha.
