John R. Neill, Husband, Brother, Uncle and Best Friend has been requested for duty to help God. We were honored to have shared the love, the laughs and the tears that John shared with us. Although we are saddened to have John on God’s list we know we will see him again when God requests our help. John was strong. John was brave. John will continue to do his part to look after those that looked after him. God has assured us of that fact.
Let us reflect on the fond memories that John would want us to remember. If you knew John you definitely have a time to remember. A smile or a smirk or even that chuckle that we can still hear.
John is now joined in Heaven with his parents Dominick and Dorothy Neill along with so many other amazing people. John is in great company.
Surviving are John’s beautiful wife of 23 years, Theresa Toranto Neill; John’s amazing brothers and their wives, Art & Jackie Neill (GA) and Brian & Jane Neill (MN); John’s fabulous brother-in-law and family, William V. & Adele and their two boys William A. & Thomas V. Toranto (NJ); also many fantastic cousins and great friends.
We all knew John, but did you know:
John was a sergeant in the military as an avionics systems specialist with the 48th Tactical Fighter Wing in Lakenheath Royal Air Force (RAF) Station in England.
John worked for M.E. Sabosik Associates, Inc. on Bridge Ave. Pt. Pleasant Boro, NJ for 28 years as the Operations Manager. John made many friends during those years as he was known as a trustworthy employee who gained his title by his honesty and compassion for his work.
John volunteered for many years at Sunnyside Equestrian Center on Middletown-Lincroft Road, Lincroft, NJ. This is dedicated to helping people with physical and cognitive disabilities achieve their personal goals through horseback riding.
John was a huge fan and loved Nascar races, the NJ Devils hockey, Seattle Seahawks football, the Yankees baseball, Air shows, his Harley motorcycle, country music and animals.
