Uncle Phil, aka Pooch, you will be missed terribly but I know your heart was broken when Aunt Berna left us and wanted to be with her. The pain in our hearts is heavy but the memories are plenty. You were the best bowling partner I could have had and the famous pooch hop will stay in my mind forever as well as all the wonderful things you did for us. My deck still looks great. I love you and miss you. Debbie XOXOXO
