To Phil and family,My deepest regrets for your loss.I only got to know Lottie for a small part of my life but I never stopped thinking about her or her family.I remeber being a little kid in Jersey.Phil and Lottie were like second parents to me,and although it's been some years since I've talked to the family it hurts just as much as if my own mother was taken from me. I love and miss you. LOVE MIKIE
