Philly, I just heard that we lost you. I will look forward to seeing you again my friend. I'm going to visit you at Mt. Hope soon. I have many fond memories of working together. You were a consumate gourmet and I learned a lot from you. People were in awe of your beautiful and delicious watermelon boats. Our annual birthday calls where we caught up on all the yearly events after we no longer worked together were always an hour + highlight of my January. This year we had a great catch up beginning with you saying to me ~ "I'm 80 now!" I will miss you Phil. Love, Mindy
