We are celebrating the life of Neil Nathan Naft, son of the late Harry and Sadie Naft and brother to Hedda Rothman (Jack z”l). Married to his best friend Laraine for almost 50 years, theirs was a marriage filled with love, laughter and shared interests, especially hiking, biking and travel. His greatest joy was raising their two children, Lindsay and Timothy (Amanda), along with the added delight of being a Zaidy to Logan and Gavin. His career took him from government to entrepreneur, allowing him to be a stay at home dad, a rarity at the time. Ultimately, he found his way back to acting and writing, passions first developed in university. He followed his heart and didn’t let convention dictate his life. A life without regrets.

Endless gratitude to Dr. Abi Vijenthira, who has been our light – guiding us through this journey with intelligence, compassion, humility and friendship.
