To the entire Phlipot family -- I did not know Harry, but I have listen to John Phlipot speak about his Dad and Mom and their strong faith. As I have grown to know and respect John - and his deep faith - I am sure that 'the apple did not fall far from the tree' ! May God Bless your entire family and wrap his strong arms around you in this time of need.

Junior and I were good friends although his brother Jimmy and I were closer in age and therefore spent a lot of time together. I remember Junior, as I knew him, drove us back and forth to parties when we were too young to drive. He was a great and fun-filled guy and will be missed. My deepest sympathy to his family and sincere prayers, Mary Jo McDonald

To the Philipot family,
I did not know Harry, but certainly knew of him through my mother Mary Jo (Stratton) McDonald. Harry even became a name that I occasionally used on my Phoenix radio show!
Please accept my condolences. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Uncle Harry was truly a blessing to the many that knew him. Being my great-uncle, he could have had little to do with me. But instead he was always supportive of me and would consistenly make an effort to be a part of my years growing up.

Me, with my Aunt & Uncle at their home

To one of the greatest men ( that just so happened to be my Uncle), that I have ever known . Every time I would see him, he always would have a friendly smile & a kind word to say. You couldn't walk away without feeling a bit better about yourself. Farewell to you my Uncle, my brother, my friend. May your family find peace in the great memories that they hold of you.
