A memorial service for Neil will be held in the Religious Centre (Building 9) at the Clayton campus at Monash University at 3pm on Thursday 9 May 2013.

All members of the mathematical community are invited to attend.

Neil was known across Monash for his tireless work with students and colleagues at department, faculty and university level, as well as in the halls of residence and beyond the university. He will also be remembered as an able administrator – indeed, he was one of the first Associate Deans, being AD(Teaching) in the Faculty of Science. Along with his wife Annette, he always took a very active interest in student development. In a number of cases they assisted and cared for individual students, and guided them through their studies.

Neil had a rich academic career in mathematics and a genuine interest in student education and welfare.
