Philip P. Ressa

I knew Phil from our affiliation with General Accident Insurance. He was larger than life and is greatly missed.

I moved in across the street from Phil's weekend and ski house in Hunter Ny in 2000. Over the first few years i got to know him a little as " Hi neighbor, how was skiing? Will you be watching the Giants Game tonight? But then I also started getting to Know Chris and his young family started to come along and grow up. But when Mimi came along it seemed we all became real friends vs. just neighbors and so many of our other friends became part of this one great Hunter Mountain ski and apres ski...

I served with Phil from 1989-1991 on the Staten Island Boy Scout Executive Board when I was Aquehongian Lodge Chief and the youth representative to the Board. We became reacquainted when I rejoined the Board through business many years later. I am now President of the Board and behalf of all members, past and present it is with deep sadness that we extend our condolences to a man who gave so much of himself for the benefit of others. Rest in Peace, our Brother in Scouting, Mr. Philip Ressa.

I met Phil through my grandfather and remember plenty of Jets vs Giants games that I went to for my birthday every year with my grandpa and Phil. He was an amazing man. Chris I am so sorry for your loss.

Met Phil trough my brother (Joe),many years ago,a wonderful human being. R.I.P,amico mio.

I knew Philip during My years in the Mortgage business , and as a member of the Builders Association. He was a very decent man. We did often banter and take issue , whenever the time presented itself . I was a diehard fan of the Washington Redskkns and Phil a loyal and proud fan of the ny giants. My thoughts in his passing he be granted God´s peace.
