Not sure what to say?

Dr. Joe,
I was so sorry to hear about the loss of your father from my brother Denny. Phil was a great man who always had a smile on his face. I cherish the years we played softball together along with his many stories. Please extend my condolences to your mom and Tom as well.
Sincerely,
Reno Fuhrman

Dear Gloria & Family,

Phil greeted me as a new teacher at Fishing Creek Elementary in 1969 with a big smile. We ate daily at the same table in the cafeteria. He later joined the teachers at Cedar Run Elementary where I had moved.

I enjoyed knowing Phil and attending the Barbershop Chorus to hear him sing.

I would run into him at Penn State football games where he again was singing with a small strolling band. What a great guy!!

God bless you,...

You always amazed me with your positive attitude, I will never forget that. You are certainly missed around The Bridges. Rest in Peace, Phil.

Gloria,

I first met Phil when I came to the chorus rehearsal for the first time. He took me under his wing and nursed me through the first two weeks until I became more comfortable. I will never forget him and his constant smile

My condolence to you and your family.

Dr Barney Margolis

Most sincerely,

Dear Torchia Family -

What a wonderful life lived. A wonderful father and grandfather to some of the best people that I have ever met. His legacy will live on long after in all of you and your children. Leanne, Rayna, Tony, Susan, and Julie are all amazing successors.

We will keep Nonno in our prayers.
