He continued: “People do get rocked by a lot and Neville got rocked by a lot and he never let it shift his morals, his ethics. I think that’s important. He could’ve been forgiven for holding some bitterness and resentment at life for everything that happened to him. And he never did. And he worked tirelessly to fight the good fight.
