Mr. Pacella,
Sir, I didn't know you but I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served with the U.S. Army in Europe as a member of the 94th Infantry Division which the 302nd Infantry was a part of in General Patton's 3rd Army. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy. The 94th saw heavy combat from September of 1944 to the end of the War in May 1945. It first saw action at Lorient and St. Nazaire in France where it helped keep 60, 000 Germans penned in two pockets on the French Coast. Later in 1945, the 94th helped break through the Siegfried Line in the Saar region of Germany and helped lead the drive to the Rhine River and by the end of the War helped reduce the Ruhr Pocket in Northern Germany. I'm sorry for going on and on but whenever I read about what our men went through during WW II I am always in awe.

For a number of years I called on Phil as a representative of CIBA pharmaceuticals. I remember Phil as a true professional and a very kind gentleman. My sincere condolences to the family.

Marie and family.

You are in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Phil and Ken were "roomies" until Dad passed away in January 2005. We all became one big family during those days. May you have peace in all the days to come.

With deepest sympathy,

The Eaton Family

My grandfather (Grampy as I called him)had a major influence on me as a little girl since we were together just about every day. He always had time to challenge me with a riddle,explain to me whatever he was doing or just let me sit on his lap and watch TV. I think Grampy was like a teddy bear: warm&cuddly, strong with big/soft hands, loving, caring and very protective of that which he loved. In essence he was like a father to me at a really important time in my life. All I can say is thank you, Grampy, for sharing your love and encouragement both when I was a child and as I grew older. I wish you could have seen how my life has expanded in recent years- my marriage, my career and the birth of my son. Although you can no longer be with us in body, you are forever in our hearts and will always be part of our family.
Lots of Love,
Andrea (your granddaughter)
