Lynne, so sorry to hear about Phil's passing away. I can see, by his obit, that he was a good man throughout his life, something to really celebrate. Condolences from your childhood friend, Tina Ireland Shaplin
What a wonderful man Philip was, he always had a big bright smile and a quick wit. He was kind and generous to his community and all he met. Philip will be so missed by my family, my mother and my daughter who affectionately called him Poppy. Rest in peace dear friend.
