Many of you know the health battle Neal has been facing for years. He has fought a long hard battle all while providing and caring for the people he loved. If you knew him, he probably helped you at some point in your life. He’s always been there for more than just his family but also his community. There was never a stranger he wouldn’t do what he could to help. He loved his family and not just the family that was proven to be so by blood. To know him was to know the pure meaning of “family.” Neal Tedford passed away last night, Janurary 29, 2026 at NMMC.

Neal Tedford spent his whole life showing up for others. Now, we are asking for your help to show up for him one last time.

The passing of Neal Tedford was a hard fought battle and as we begin to arrange his final services, we realized we need a bit of help laying him to rest. We want to celebrate his incredible life with the dignity and respect he earned every single day.
