I was so very sorry to learn of Phil's sudden passing. I remember meeting him for the first time when he and Marilyn went on their first date. He was a very kind and funny guy, and devoted to his family. I will always remember him with much fondness. Sending love and prayers to his family, especially, Marilyn, Matt, Andy and Kathy.

Phil & I worked together at Ford Motor Co. for quite a few years. He sure was a good friend and would do all he could to make a day of work a fun experience. He surely will be missed. He was one of those people you remember all your life. God's speed Philip..... Bill & Lennie Thurston...
