Ann, my sympathies to you and your family. Will put you all in my thoughts and prayers. I also pray that you will be comforted by memories of the many good times you and Phil shared.

Ann and sons,
I was saddened to find out today, June 1, of the passing away of Phil. I had talked to him about a yr. ago. He was my Commanding Officer when I served on the USS PIGEON at the N&MCRC in Phoenix. He was the finest Commanding Officer I served under in my 20 yrs. affiliated with the Reserve Center. He knew how to separate reality from fiction in the Reserves.

Ann
I am very sorry to hear of your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Please know that you have many good friends who are thinking of you during this time.

Dear Ann and Family,
We were deeply saddened to learn of Phil's passing this morning. (Modesto Bee). The City of Modesto greatly benefitted from Phil's dedication and community spirit; and those of us who came to know him well benefitted from his "joie de vivre", his affective laugh, contagious smile and generous nature. It was a pleasure to work with him, and our prayers are with you all during this most difficult time. With regards, and fond memories - Linda Thompson, Traffic...

Ann,
My deepest condolences to you and your family. I worked for Phil in Modesto, and he shared with us news from home and family regularly. It was evident that his family meant everything to him. Again, my sympathy and prayers go to you and yours.

Ann, We were so sorry to hear of Phil's passing! For those of us who worked with him here in Modesto, we will always remember his great sense of humor and big smile! Plus, he taught me how to play craps....I can remember him drawing the craps table on a little piece of paper & teaching me how to bet. Ann, we will keep you and your family in our thoughts and prayers!

My heartfelt condolences to Ann and Phil's family over this great loss. I enjoyed working for Phil for 2 years in Modesto and learned alot from him.

Ann and Kids,
Our hearts are out for you in this difficult time. Death is not the end but merely the beginning. Rest assure we will be with Philip again for even happier times.
All our love - Steve, Andrea, Tanner, McKenzie, Peyton and Parker Magee

Ann, Love is the best salve that soothes hurts of loss. Your friends and family love and support you. And the greatness of GOD's love is available for the asking. You are special to HIM and to all of us.
