Phillip J. Petillo Ph.D.

Hey Phil, Miss you! Dennis SAVINI, I WAS YOUR FIRST CUSTOMER! Still have my 63 Jazz Bass you refettted for me in that first wetsoaked basement of the cow barn. Will always remember the hours and hours we hung out there and later at your shop in Ocean Township. Last time I saw you, was as sir Jones would say, all dressed up to go away, I´ll probably see you again, I Hope. Dennis oh and I still have that twelve string you made with your family logo on the headstock, you didn´t realize it...

September 4, 2022 To My Darling Phillip, Happy Birthday, my Dearest Husband!

We all feel your presence in the beautiful home you built for us surrounded by the masterful woodworking skills that remind us of you everyday. Our sons...
