I am so very sorry Neal is gone. But he really isn’t- since I too, love the art he loved, and the memories of him and our times together will not fade. We shared that passion in many conversations in his Cherry Creek North gallery. We knew each other when fine art was a “thing” in the early ’70s and we were merchants along 3rd Ave. I have oils on my wall he sold me (not at a discount) and they will remind me of his acrid wit and his very discerning eye. Gonna miss you, Neal. Say “Hi” to Savageau for me.
