Not sure what to say?

So many wonderful memories of Phil, our neighbor and my parents' dear friend. I remember Phil as the first (and maybe only) military dad in our neighborhood cool enough to buy Earth Shoes! Always his own person, and kind and loyal to my mother until her death.

So sorry to hear about your loss. You know that God and Jesus are in the best position to comfort us when we lose a loved one in death.

Mr. Phillip was a great man. I will miss his smile and his ponytail. He was an awesome person inside and out. Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always.

My deepest condolence to the entire family. I am heartbroken to learn of his passing. Mr. Merrick was a wonderful person and I have long admired him. His absence leaves a tremendous loss.
