I sent my deepest sympathy to the Hughes family.The Hughes boys graduated from Glen Ridge High Ridge in Jersey with me in 1955. I was good friends with Neil as we were in Boy Scouts and on the track team. I often visit Neil in his house. Both of his parents were very nice. His father had a stamp collection which he paid close attention to. I reconnected with Neil about eight years ago and Christmas cards, emails, and telephone calls followed.
Looking at Neil's business career and his great interest in his local community I can see his passion of purpose and hard work which he demonstrated while we were students together.
