Phil was a great guy whom I had the pleasure of meeting at Kinko's in Chestnut Hills. He was always very helpful and friendly. He was always the person I wanted to see when I needed help. We spent many late nights and early mornings together! I went there on Veterans Day to thank him for his service and was vary sad to hear of his passing. I will miss him and think of him every time I use a copier.
