Phil was one of the nicest guys we ever met. He always had a smile on his face whenever we saw one another.

Judy,
Carrington Place will never be the same without P.E.'s smiling face and sense of humor! He was truly a gentleman as well as a 'gentle man.' Your father, as well as mine, were/are exceptional men and wonderful, loving fathers. I truly feel your loss and grieve with you.
Love to you and your family,

PE was a gracious and well-respected gentleman. We had the privilege of knowing him and his family and the physicians and staff of Carrington Place share in the family's loss. We will miss his sense of humor, his welcoming smile, and the great times we had together.
