The sorrow we feel for your loss cannot be expressed. Neil was never without a smile, a good comeback, or a good story !
Neal and Nita was a team name, they both were one. Our fondest memories of earlier years were being at their home, going places with them, visiting over coffee and oh yes, crying on a shoulder now and then, as most newly weds do !! They gave great advice, great trust, and we were blessed to have our kids be friends together. I know he is pain free, and happy now in God's hands, but to be a bit selfish, Tioga lost one fine man, a wonderful husband to Anita and the best dad to his kids anyone could ask for. God be with you all. I will be with you in spirit at his funeral, it's the best I can do. We send our deepest condolences and love to you all. He will always be a great memory to anyone who met him !! He will leave a very empty hole in our hearts. Hugs and love ......................

Between Mr. Kamps smile and the comments left by friends, he must have been a lot of fun to be around. May your feelings be the same as the Psalmist: “This is my comfort in my affliction, for your own saying has preserved me alive. I have remembered your judicial decisions from time indefinite, O Jehovah, and I find comfort for myself. May your loving-kindness serve, please, to comfort me, according to your saying to your servant.”?—Psalm 119:50, 52, 76. God's comforting sayings are to be found in his Word the Bible.
