Phil was an amazing man. I can remember when he led us in prayer at Display Specialities after 9/11 happened. He had a way with words like no other person I've ever known. He was a great man. Scott talks about Phil all the time and how much he influenced his life. Phil was a father figure to Scott and we both loved Phil very much. To know Phil was a pleasure. I know he's in a better place and has no pain now, but it does not make it easier for those of us who will miss him dearly. Jennifer and his family my condolences are with you all. If you need anything please don't hesitate to let us know

i loved hearing Phil's sister talk about her childhood memories of her big brother during the celebration of his life today. He led a blessed life and he created a beautiful family legacy on this earth.
And Dan spoke of the love in Phil's voice every time he spoke Jennifer's name. 
The flag ceremony was heart wrenching. 
Phil, I know you will shine down on your family from your heavenly seat. And you will be right by God's side to welcome them when they join you one day. 
Thank you for being an inspiration to all who knew you.  Thank you for serving our country.  Thank you for loving my friend Jen. RIP
Psalm 23 "The Lord is my shephard, I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down  in green pastures, he leadeth me beside still waters. 
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake."

I was so sorry to hear of Phil's passing. We were best friends in High School, and Phil was the Best Man at my wedding. He was a great guy. Phil would stick with you in good times and bad. We had a lot of laughs together. My wife and I offer our condolences to Jennifer and the entire family. Bob and Joyce Rowan

My most sincere condolences to the family of a Marine. We were together and shared a "hooch" (tent) in Chu Lai, Vietnam while with the 9th Engineering Battalion, 1st Marine Division. Semper Fi Marine.

Phil was a kind and friendly soul. I best knew him by the sparkle in Jenn's eyes when she talked about him. What a sweet lifetime of love that was expressed with her humble and beautiful words. My heart grieves with Jenn and all of Phil's family. I pray all feel God's comfort and presence through this time.
