Update (4/19):
Great news! I heard from Mr. Neal himself last night. He is out of the hospital and back at home. He wants everyone to know how much he appreciates the outpouring of support he has received.
Thank you for all the kind letters of encouragement, and for some very cool signature discs which I will proudly display. Though I am still pretty weak, I have already started Physical Rehab and I have an army out there pulling for me. — Mr. Neal
Update (4/12):
Bobby reports that Mr. Neal is doing much better and getting out of ICU today!
Update (4/7):
Just got word from Bobby that Mr. Neal has hit a little bump on the road to recovery.
Let’s all keep Mr. Neal in our thoughts. Your continued support makes a difference and is greatly appreciated.
I’ve just learned from Bobby Hoellwarth, that the pillar of the NorCal Series, Mr. Neal, is about to undergo triple bypass heart surgery. The surgery will take place on Wednesday, April 4th.
I know that Neal would love to hear from you while he is recovering at home, so please show your support by sending a card, letter, or perhaps a get-well signed disc from your local club.

Hello folks, Tonight 4/5/07 I will be up at the course playing some DG and will have a get well card with me for “Mr. Neal Hoellwarth” who had a triple by pass on the 4th.
Though I don’t know him, I am still planning on sending a card.
So my request/favor is if you see me, please ask to sign the card.
Thanks. Much….
