We met Phil years ago through ASCET. What a wonderful man. We always enjoyed visiting with Phil and Kathy while on our meetings/trips for ASCET and NICET. We will treasure those memories. Please accept our deepest sympathies.

Phil brought me into the American Society of Certified Engineering Technicians (ASCET) as a Chapter President and later appointed me to Regional Vice President. With his mentorship and my duties in the Society, I grew and became a better person for it. I am not alone, and as a collective, Phil's vision lives on. It is the responsibility of those he gathered to come together and move forward, but never forgetting who put us on this path. My condolences to his family, friends and colleagues.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family and close friends at this time of great loss. I met Phil through ASCET and he became a friend that I enjoyed speaking with about technical issues as well as life in general. His positive attitude, kindness and professionalism were an inspiration to me. Phil was willing to share his knowledge and enthusiasm for our industry with anyone and he was a joy to be around. He worked tirelessly to promote ASCET and proper fire protection. Phil was a friend when I lost my father and he paid me one of the greatest compliments that I ever received when he bid me farewell as I departed for the Middle East earlier this year. I will never forget and will sincerely miss his company, advice and sense of humor. Best Wishes my dear friend.

What a wonderful Man! Being in my teens and being with his children, he was always the "cool dad." I love this picture, because I will always remember him with a smile, good humored and a welcoming personality. I feel lucky to have known him. My thoughts and prayers to everyone who had the pleasure of knowing him. He will surely be missed. "Mash"
