To the entire Rowe Family....
Sue and I would like to send our most sincere sympathies to the family and especially our friend Beverly. The Rowe's could always be found in the back of the contemporary service, as well as "behind the scenes" supporting the church and school in many different ways. I was thankful to get to "usher" with Neil during many of those church services. His quiet and humble ways did not go unnoticed by this guy....nor his faithful influence. Prayers, love and support to Bev and the family! Thank you for the impact you made on this family....you will be missed my friend!

To Bev and family Neil will be remembered as one of CTK's first Royal Ranger Leaders and for his faithfulness in feeding the hungry downtown. We had some great plus challenging times way back then. GOD bless each of you with His peace and everlasting love.
My sincere condolences to the entire family, and you especially Beverly. Neil was a good friend and teammate for many years in our golf league. His quiet, humble demeanor will be missed by all who knew him. I am very sorry to not be able to attend the calling hours due to work related travel, but please know I will be thinking of you all and remembering Neil fondly.

Neil, I will miss you dearly. Always enjoyed our interactions, even the dad jokes. As a teenager I remember you bringing the ski boat to Uncle Bill’s & all the wonderful times we had there. You joined me in bowling tournaments & as I recall we did pretty well. You took me on my one & only hunting trip & I got a squirrel, then realized hunting wasn’t my thing although I loved walking in the woods & kept that up for decades, introducing my son to it. We had many enjoyable rounds of golf together, not that long ago one round at my old stomping grounds Big Met. You were a wonderful family man and I’ll always be thankful for your time with Bev. You will always be in my memories & I’ll smile when thinking of you. God Bless You! It was an honor & a pleasure knowing you.
I was very fortunate to know Neil for most of my career at NASA Glenn. Working with him building space hardware such as Solid Surface Combustion Experiment, Space Acceleration Measurement System, and several other successful Space Experiments. He was a mentor to me and I always benefited from his experience. I will miss his friendship.
He loved the outdoors. I remember him coming over to the farm to scout turkeys. As we are walking around he tells me he just had his knees replaced within weeks. He was a person that enjoyed life and just kept going. I am sorry his story is over but it will continue with all us that knew him.
God bless Bev and the rest of the family.

Sincerest condolences to the Rowe family. I got to know Neil when I started as a NASA contractor back in the late '80's. No matter what was going on, he always had a smile to offer. Neil's passion for hunting took him to my brothers farm in central Ohio. It's easy to forget the many people we each cross paths with over a lifetime, but Neil is someone I will always fondly remember.

I want to extend my heartfelt prayers and condolences to the Rowe family. I was fortunate enough to meet Neil on my first day at the NASA Lewis Research Center in 1985 and work closely with him for many years. He led by example, he taught me what a good work ethic was, how to successfully build spaceflight hardware and have a good time doing it. I enjoyed many years on the golf course with Neil and spending time together after golf. I was also blessed to enjoy many lunches with Neil and the old Space Experiments Office guys at Nuevo Acapulco after he retired. You will be greatly missed my friend!
