I will never meet in my lifetime someone as kind as you Del. Over 35 years of friendship and you never talked smack about anyone even when I knew you didn't like that person.
Kind. That is the best word for me to describe you.
I'm glad I still have 2 times a day I think of you. 730 is Del Time because as you and I know, those digits spell your name upside down. Now that you have departed, I can no longer send you a screenshot of you Time of Day but it still makes me think of you!
I know you're in a wonderful place and I'm looking forward to meeting up with you again some day!
Stay gay!!!

Del Phillips was my mentor, my friend and a true hero in my life. Words cannot begin to say how much he meant to me. Heaven is beyond blessed to have this man in its realm.

I love you Del.

To Helene, Del's mom - You raised a stellar man and amazing friend to all. You are amazing, and your never ending support and love for him all the years I knew him, are truly inspiring to me, to have witnessed, especially as a Mom.

Much love to you and your family navigating this new life,

I am very sad that Del is no longer with us. He was truly and beautiful and extraordinary man.

When I first met him I reached for his hand to greet him and he waved me off and took me into his arms with a strong and warm embrace, wow, I loved him then.

Over the years it seemed that no gathering was complete without Del he had such a warm and joyful presence about him that was contagious to anyone near him.

I was blessed to have known him personally and in business, and I will forever remember him and love him. Helene you did so well

You were a truly remarkable person, I can't help but to remember the first time we met. In that moment, I felt an instant connection, as if we were family by choice and not by blood. Your incredible spirit and vibrant humor lit up every room you entered, and your wit was unmatched; your jokes brought joy to everyone around you.

I will forever cherish the memories of our lunches, dinners, and all those unforgettable gatherings. You truly embodied the saying that "the good ones go too soon," for you were indeed one of the very best.

Though we must part for now, I promise to honor your legacy and try to keep our family and friends united. Until we meet again, your spirit will continue to inspire those who were fortunate enough to know you. Thank you for all the wonderful memories. You will be dearly missed.
