Not sure what to say?

Philip helped me get through several challenging times in my adult life. I had hoped to see him on the streets of SF and extend my thanks someday. The memory of our talks will stay with me and his quote here is yet another gift! Thank you very much and God bless.

Philip was my counselor and SF. He quickly became more of a close friend who had an incredible ability to listen. I enjoyed my sessions with Philip and appreciated the perspective he always shared with me. I watched him gracefully battle cancer. I'm so grateful I got to meet him towards the end of his life. He will continue to play a huge role in my life!

My deepest sympathy to the family and friends of Mr. Colgan. May you hope in the God of all comfort to strengthen and console your hearts. (Psalm 27:14)

My deepest sympathy to the Colgan family. What a shock to read of Phil's death.
