I was born May 4, 1948 to the wonderful parents of Dave and Nanetta Neal Jr. Better siblings I could not have asked for, my big brother Dave, and younger sisters Sonji and Terrance. I was raised in Jackson, Tennessee. There I graduated from Merry High School and earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from Lane College, class of 1968. I enlisted in the United States Air Force during the Vietnam War for seven and a half unforgettable years. Where I met and was married to a very lovely lady, Venisa Washington. Together we raised three beautiful daughters, Odessa, Octavia and Tiffany giving us eight amazing grandchildren. I have been a member of Saint Paul CME Church all my life. In my growing years, there were many questions I had, but never any answers. Sometimes I was told, there are some things we are not suppose to know or some times given answers that didn’t make sense. Later years in my adult life, a voice kept asking me, will you do something for me? Over and over again, will you do something for me? Till finally I said yes Lord, and I was told to read and study the Bible and I did. For over a year I read, and then asked, “What is it you want me to do?” I was given a glimpse of this manuscript. I have been putting this message together off and on for about 14 years. Most of the questions I had been asking over the years, for me have been answered.
