Phil was trying desperately to get a military flight out of Guantanamo today to return for the funeral, but there were no seats available. He was one of Scott's closest friends and was very upset to hear of his death. My wife and I will attend the calling hours on Thursday to stand in for Phil. Your family has our deepest sympathies.
