Dear Sue, Pete & Gang: Was just trying to send you a pic Sue on FB (which you are not a member) and came across Phil's obituary. Remembering how sorry we were to be unable to make it to his memorial. A wonderful man!! A gem in my eyes and very close to John's heart. Will always remember him singing "Katie, Katie" to Katie when she was a baby. He and Claire are having one hell of time together. Much Love, the Clarke's

My sympathies to the Hagen Family. Mr. Hagen was one of my first softball coaches (St. Paul's 10-12 yr. olds), a very long time ago, but I have the fondest of memories from those teams and remember how patient he was with all of us and his encouraging words stuck with me a long time. I hope you all have wonderful memories of him that will last you a lifetime too.
