Such a nice man and such a wonderful heritage he has left for the Methodist Church in PN with the establishment of the Social Services. He was groundbreaking in a lot of new ideas in the Social Services. Anne Petersen

Such fond memories of Phil. He took me under his wing when I first started work as a cadet surveyor in 1962. I missed him when he went north to Rotorua to work a few years later, but I have never forgotten his kindness toward me. Rest in Peace Phil, you more than measured up.
