Bob Neale, Jr., passed away unexpectedly at his home in Auburn, Washington on July 8, 2006 at the age of 62. He was born October 2, 1943 on Long Island, New York.
His parents moved the family to Camano Island, Washington in 1950, where they owned and operated Maple Grove Resort. Bob graduated from Twin City High School in 1961. He proudly entered the Air Force in 1965 and served overseas in Bangkok,Thailand until 1968. Using his skills learned in the military, Bob joined the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) as an air traffic controller. After 38 years of government service, Bob retired in 2003 from his position as Air Traffic Control Supervisor at the Seattle Center in Auburn, Washington.
Bob was an avid sportsman and enjoyed all forms of hunting, fishing, crabbing and boating with his friends and family. He spent many fun filled times at his Wilson Creek property in eastern Washington where he was a guide for trophy deer hunting. He also spent time at the family's cabin on Camano Island where he became quite proficient at feeding eagles with left over crab bait, always a fascinating show for the entire beach. His quick wit and sense of humor will be missed by us all.
