My deepest condolences to the Neff family. I met John when he hired me at Hoakalei Country Club. He was so nice to me. He was so soft spoken and I learned a lot during the short time I worked with him. No matter if he was in pain he always made sure that we were ok and helped us out as much as he could. He will be missed by all of us here at Hoakalei. At least no more pain John, rest in peace. Til we meet again!
