I went to H.S. with Nekl. He was a wonderful guy. Nekl was the guy you could count on, a true friend. He was always good for a laugh. He touched the lives of everyone he knew.

My favorite memory was him trying to teach me and my friend tiffany how to drive a standard. He let us jerk and stall out his car a hundred times, nothing much came out of the lesson aside from a headache and a few laughs. It was a great experience.

He will be greatly missed! My prayers and thought are with his family.

Allen Family,
I had the honor of serving with Nekl during OIF IV in the Rakkasans. I remember him as bright and motivated Soldier. He was an exceptional NCO who could always be found exactly where he belonged, with his men. His service exemplified the best in all of us. He will not be forgotten.

'til we form again....RAKKASAN!
