I did not know phillip personally, but I am a good friend to his sister Renee, I m sooo sorry for the family, I know how deeply sadened Renee has been to lose her only brother. I wish all of you deep condolences. God bless each and every one of you.
Thank you for your thoughts and prayers for dad, Like any other daughter and her father we didn’t see eye to eye on a lot of things. Phillip raised 6 children, four of which have started their own familes, he has 7.5 grandchildren. When my kids were born, mom and dad were still raising boys, hard to be parents and grandparents at the same time, but that is ok.
Katie and Alex have lots of fun memories with their grandpa.
My dad and I had lots of time to talk one on one over the last few months in the hospitial or in the nursing home. They are times i will never forget. I know my dad in in gods arms now, reunited with his own mom and dad, that is a comforting feeling. You will be misssed Love Tammy
Debbie and family we are so sorry for your loss. My brother’s Rich and Louie go way back to there youth with Phil. From the stories I still hear today from so many years ago there were many good times. Phil will always be remembered. God bless you Debbie and all the children,and God bless Renee.
Thank you everyone for your kind words of comfort for our family. I know that Phillip would have liked to have spoken to each of you. He was a big people person having many long talks and debates. He struggled the last couple of years with his health. The last few months were really hard for him and us. He fought back each and every time. I know he is in Gods hands now and with his parents and Grandparents. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. It is a big comfort for our children and myself. God bless each and every one of you.
