Aunt Josie and family,
My dad says you are doing well in your memories. Uncle Phil was such a good man that it would be sad to think of him as a crying thought all the time. Do well, Love, Belle

Mr. Michel,
Sir, I didn't know you but as a fellow Marine I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served with the USMC in Korea. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

When I first met Uncle Phil I had to do a double take as I thought he was my dad; his brother, David. He was such a funny man and always teasing us little ones then.Your family is in my prayers. Love, Belle

It's hard to know what to say. My Uncle Phil was a fun man, and a great husband, father and grandfather to his family. He and his wonderful sense of humor will be missed by all.

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.
