John "Neil" Overton, 77, died Wednesday, August 8, 2018, at his daughters home in Elizabethtown, KY after a tough fight with ALS.

Upon retirement, he moved to Port St. Lucie, FL where he had visited often with his parents when growing up. He joined the Marine Corp in 1959 at the age of 18 where he proudly served on active duty for four years.
After serving with the Marines, Neil began work in the business world. He was a brilliant businessman and a very hard worker. His first business was a floor waxing company. Following that, he began working in his family's business, Overton's Seafood Stand. He was well known in Norwalk through the business, which he ran and owned for many years until his retirement.

Neil was very sociable and was known for his warmth and support by all.
Neil had a passion for his cats and adopted three over the past few years. Each cat had a special need, and it was a priority for him to make them feel safe and loved.
An avid golfer, Neil was a member of the Savanna Golf Club in Port St. Lucie and played with the Bandits for many years. He was the winner of numerous trophies and played golf in beautiful locations such as Cancun, Puerto Rico and Hawaii.
