I will be eternally grateful for the interest that Phil took in my son Matthew and it enabled him to reach his potential. Phil did this kind of thing for all the young men who crossed his path. He will be so greatly missed but all those values he passed on will be treasured always.

Dear Lawler's,

I never met Phil, never attended any of his classes, but was truly impacted by the passion he gave his profession. He, along with Paul, have always been role models I have looked up to in this profession. My deepest sympathies.

Dear Denise & family. Our prayers are with you at this difficult time. We have so many great memories of Phil and how he influenced our sons in the baseball program at NCHS. He always was upbeat with his players and was such a great role model for Brian and Stephen. The world was surely blessed with Phil in it and The Lord has welcomed him home never to suffer anymore. He will be greatly missed.

It is a thrill to read about the example Phil Lawler lived for all to see. We are blessed by his courage. The effect of his life will continue to change the health of our country, and many other countries.
Our prayer is for comfort for his wife , family ane many many friends
