First my sincerest condolences to Nicki, Spohie and all the Jones Family, our thoughts and love are with you all.

What can I say about Neil?  A force of nature, a trusted sounding board, a friend, raconteur? all of those plus more!!  I first met Neil over 30 years ago after I had Joined Oscar Friedheim and was on a visit to Linpac Devizes (as it was then), he was stuck under an old SPO 1575 covered in oil, dirt and board dust and I remember thinking ‘what a character’.

Neil was such a huge influence as he always wanted to look after the people around him and in the company and get the best out of them as Bobst people and human beings. He saw everyone in BGL as family and if you ever needed help or were stuck for somthing he would find a way to make sure you were ok, especially if it effected your family. He did this for me many times over the years and I truly appreciated it. He will be missed by me and everyone.

RIP Neil.
