Neil Sutherland Day
July 14, 1918 – July 19, 2005

Neil Sutherland Day passed away at home after a short illness in Portland, 
Ore. on July 19, 2005.

He was born and raised in Detroit, Mich., and graduated from Redford High

served domestically as well as in Europe during those years. He achieved the 
rank of 1st Lieutenant. 

After the war, Neil enrolled at the University of Southern California and 
there met his future wife, Dorothy Day. They returned to Michigan to complete 
his degree. He graduated from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, with a 
bachelor of science degree in electrical engineering in 1949.

On returning to Southern California, Neil started a career in aerospace with 
Northrop Corp., where he was employed for 25 years. He raised his family in 
the city of Rolling Hills on the Palos Verdes Peninsula, retired to Bear 
Valley Springs,  and, until recently, traveled between Bear Valley and his 
other residence in Portland, Ore.

Neil is survived by his wife, Dorothy Rands of Portland; brother, Paul Day of
