At our Elks Lodge where Phil was a active member, we celebrated Flag Day and as we sang God Bless America I thought of Phil and how his voice would boom across the Lodge at every meeting! Miss that golden voice. Larry

Sue, so sorry for your loss. Just know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. I will miss our RV trips with the Joeys. We don't know why these things happen as they do. Phil has no pain now. He will be watching over his "Elks" and singing with a new group now. God Bless You. Judy VanVuren

Trusting in God's Promises
Comfort for your sorrow,
courage for each day,
Strength to face this journey,
His Word to light your way,
His peace to fill your heart,
although you may not understand,
And his love to hold you gently
in the hollow of His hand.
“I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.”-John 14:18.

I met Phil & Sue at Lazy Days RV Park in December 2011 and they became members of The Challengers Chapter of Family Motorcoach Association. They had just purchased a new motorhome and were looking forward to doing some traveling. Even though it was a short time, we became friends. The members of The Challengers will keep Sue and her family in our prayers. Phil, enjoy that motorhome in heaven!

I have had the honor and pleasure of being one of Phil's friends from the Merritt Island Elks Lodge 2650 for many years. We were Trustees together and I enjoyed and admired his devotion to the Fraternity and his ability to accomplish any tasks the Lodge required to keep our efforts true. The Lodge will always carry a legacy from Phil and he will be a permanent fabric of our heritage. Rest easy, my friend. Larry
