Rolfe Neill passed this morning. Known for championing Charlotte and running the Observer, those of us fortunate enough to have known him as Granddad will remember him for his generosity, love of a well-carbonated Coke over plenty of ice, and Monopoly prowess (a rail tycoon!).

Over the decades, Rolfe Neill left an oversized footprint on greater Charlotte, just as he did on the hulking newspaper offices at Tryon and Stonewall https://t.co/ltDsaHY1X3
