Alan,Linda and family,
I was very sad to read about Phillip.Growing up next door to you guys when I was young, my memories are the same as Debbie's ....jumping the ditch and going to the ball park, sneaking on the bus!!Jumping our bikes over the hill,playing basketball in the Etheridge's driveway....We were all too cool for words! He was a wonderful person.

To the family...as we all grew up together, it makes our memories fond ones. All the days we sneaked on Mrs. Etheridge's school bus, riding our bikes over the hill in her yard, jumping the ditch behind your house to get to the ballpark, and going to school together. Most of all Phillip's friendship with my brother Kevin! They spent many good times together! They were brothers!

Love to all of you!
May he rest in peace and always in our hearts!
