SHE IS A BEAUTIFUL ANGEL

Warm memories of her running around grandmom's beauty shop while I was getting hair done and telling me about her brother Marky. "He never listens to me!" Grandmom smiling and 3 yr old Phil running about talking about how she loves her brother. God rest her sweet soul and hold her in your arms.

I am so sorry for the loss of your beautiful Angel.God Bless your family

Mark, Mina, Marky and the entire family, I am so very sorry for the loss of your precious daughter. Phil fought hard and through it all she entertained us with her singing, dancing and funny jokes. She was a brave soul who inspired us all. I'm praying that happy memories gives you the strength to get through this time of sorrow. Phil will never be forgotten. RIP angel!

I met you (philomenas mom) at St Peters it was right after mass and you approached us with the most beautiful card with your daughters beautiful face smiling with such light. The prayer was so powerful and the words gripped my soul. I shared her story with friends and my daughter has that card on her wall above her desk. The thing is this...you asked us to pray as a family for her. Last week on Sunday night July 23, I was pleading to god for everything to be okay when I opened my eyes Philomenas card was there with her smiling face. I asked god to help her and vowed to have us all pray for her.Today Sunday July 30, I was in my daughters room and wondered how Philomena was doing. My heart sank when I read rip messages on

Sending heartfelt sympathies on the loss of your precious Phil. May the love of family and friends help carry you through your grief.

Rip Phil, you will always hold a special place in my heart and I will never forget how much you helped me through some very tuff time.

The Stendardo Family.
I am deeply sorry for you loss.

My heart goes out to your
family at this most
difficult time.

There are no words I can say to articulate just how sadden I am to hear of Phils passing. I was raised Catholic, but loss my faith many years ago. Being apart of a community # storm the heavens, I relearned the power of prayer, and it's purpose. Thank you for sharing your beloved daughter, with the world.

Mark, Mina & Marky, my deepest, heartfelt sympathies to you on the loss of Your beautiful Philomena. Thank you for sharing Philomena with the rest of us. From the day #stormtheheavens came about, I began praying for your daughter. Philomena had a message, and it was to pray, to trust God. I hadn't prayed in a long time and I was so distant from God. Your amazing daughter changed that for me, as well as many, many others. She was a true messenger of our Lord. She changed lives. I went to the community rosaries. I hadn't said the rosary in years. Again, she changed lives and brought so many people back to our Lord. You raised an amazing daughter, with a clear message. The world heard her, and we responded. I pray that she give you strength and comfort in going forward. I cannot fathom what you're going through, but what I can do is continue to pray, and honor Philomena. She's rejoicing with our Lord in Heaven. Fly high sweet angel, fly high.

I am so sorry for your loss. She was and still is such an inspiration to everyone. Lots of love and prayer for your family during this difficult time.

God Bless your family and may you find peace in your hearts. Your child is a true inspiration to all. I do believe your family left a mark on many folks of what faith and courage is truly about. Phil will continue to be remembered in my prayers. Rest in peace Phil

Thank you for touching so many lives through prayer. Rest In Peace little one.

I am so very sorry for your Loss of Our Precious Little Angel Philomena. Over these months of reading posts and praying along with the whole Community, I believe Philomena made us all a Family through Prayer. I will continue to keep your Family in my Prayers as I know how difficult it must be. God Bless You All

I have never met you, nor do I know your family personally. Over the past 10 months Though I feel like I have got toknow the beautiful sweet girl you are and will always be remembered by. You and your family will always be in my prayers. I hope you're finally at peace and there is no more suffering. Its amazing all the post Ive seen storming the heavens with prayer for you! You really are a special girl bringing together so many strangers back to god. Rest in peace Philomena.

Though we never met my heart was drawn to this sweet girl, as so many of us are. Grateful for the opportunity to be praying. May God's grace continue to guide you. When you can't see his hand, trust his heart.

There are no words to express how very sorry I am for the loss of your precious little girl. I am not a practicing Catholic but since I first heard about this beautiful little girl, I have prayed. I have prayed every time I read a post on FB, I have prayed every time I have watched the praying of the rosary on Sunday nights and I will continue to pray for Phil & your family, and to find a cure for cancer. Your family, PR and the world has truly gained an angel to watch over all of us. God Bless

Her life and her story, have all had a purpose. We truly believe that! Your faith is so inspiring and through your faith, I know you believe that your grief and comfort are on God's heart and she is in His hands now. God bless all of you.
Philomena is and always will be an inspiration to me. In the past 10 months, your little girl brought so much to my life and she touched the lives, hearts and minds of so many. She is a miracle! She warmed my heart with her beautiful, contagious smile and her funny laugh. She made me laugh when I didn't think I could, with her jokes of the day. She gave me strength when I thought that I wasn't strong enough to get through my shortcomings in my life. She gave me hope for a brighter day. And she made my faith so much more stronger than I already believed! She truly is a saint. She brought so many people back to their knees and have more faith to pray and believe in Our Lord, the blessed Mother and Jesus Christ.
I will continue to storm the heavens and never stop praying for your family and a cure.
Saint Philomena of Port Richmond, we will never forget the sweet,,beautiful angel that you are and all the you showed the world! Rest peacefully in paradise Philomena. Thank you for all that you taught me! I hope that when I get to heaven, I'll see that beautiful smile on your face!

Rest in the arms of Jesus, sweet angel ❤

My heart breaks for all of you!!! May Gods grace help you!!! I'll never stop praying, just as you asked!!

Mina and Mark
Your faith and strength have been an inspiration. Your beautiful girl and family will remain in our thoughts and prayers.

Dear Stendardo Family,

I have been praying for and with you for months. I cannot fathom your grief, but Know for certain that your faith will sustain you and that Phil's life has/will inspire so many.

A quick connection - the world is actually a small place. I didn't know we had a connection until I read this notice and funeral arrangements. Lefty was a dear friend of my Dad, Joe Mautz. I was in his company many a time. St. Anne's is still the parish of some of my family. They both welcomed Phil - along with many others I'm sure...

Blessings,
Nancy Mautz Peluso

To be absent from the body,is to be present with the Lord. Prayers for the family and loved ones. R.I.P little Angel.

My sadness and sorrow for such a great unexplained loss - we will never understand but your mission Philomena will be carried on through prayers from our family and my CCD PREP program at Nativity! God Bless All!

Much condolences, prayers and love for family and much joy and love for Philomena! From another Catholic grieving cancer mommy and family

Deeply sorry for your loss. Continued prayers for the entire Stendardo family especially Mina, Mark and Marky. Prayers for continued strength and faith to get you through this difficult time. Philomena was loved by all who met her. Her love for life and her smile was so contagious . She was meant for greatness and I truly believe God's plan will continue in her memory and one day we will witness Sainthood. We will continue to storm the heavens. Saint Philomena air Port Richmond , pray for us. With Sympathy , The Sullivan Family ( Dori, Bryan , Larry, Abby Dann and Nora)

I am so sorry for your loss. I will keep praying for your family that God give you strength on these heart breaking days.

I wish to express my sincere condolences on Philomena's passing.
Your family is in my thoughts and prayers
Phil and your entire family was an inspiration to all of us.
Phil reminded me not only of realizing how important God is in my life but also the importance of how precious each and every minute life is. She taught me to cherish my family and friends even more .
Phil brought an entire community to pray daily and realize the importance of God in our lives.
What a precious gift she gave us all to unify people to pray and have a relationship with God and appreciate what we have in life not what we think we need.
So Phil did have a miracle the miracle of uniting all people in prayer not only once a week but daily
I will never forget Phil or your wonderful family and I will continue to pray
May God grant you healing and Comfort .
My deepest sympathy

So sorry for your loss .she is and angel .

Mark and Mina, I am sorry on the passing of Phil please know she is in the lords care for eternity and will be with you in spirit for your remaining days on earth and her memory will live on for forever in the neighborhood, and communities all across the world in which Phil wanted everyone to be children of God and to hear his prayer....May you rest peacefully Saint Philomena of Port Richmond...Sincerely, John and Holly Romano

May the light of Philomena's beautiful spirit brighten up the dark days ahead. My deepest sympathies to all those who knew and loved her.

My condolences to the whole family. Philomena really touched my family's life and brought us so close to God. I will always continue to pray for Philomena and your family. Thanks again for sharing her beautiful story.

Mark, Mina, Markey and family, We are so sorry for your loss. You are all in our thoughts, prayers and our hearts. Mina you are the strongest woman I know, God Bless you all.

Love,
Elmer and Colleen Rhodes and family

I am so sorry for the loss of your beautiful daughter., sweet sister to her big brother. Maybe one of the miracles was that we all got to know and love Phil, because we were all different people before that. We will all continue Storming the heavens with prayers and believing in Gods grace. May God bless and keep you until that day you are reunited with your own little miracle. Our deepest sympathy for you all. Fly high Bean!

Rest easy lil Phil,you're in God's hands now. See you on the other side. May God bless your Family.

I, along with my Mom, send our DEEPEST CONDOLENCES to you, Mina, Mark, and Marky (and to the entire Stendardo and Carroll Families). Little Philomena possessed a GIFT, that is NOT seen that often in our secular world. She TRULY was a LIVING ANGEL, sent by GOD. Throughout her brave, faith-filled battle, she had inspired/influenced so many-bringing thousands upon thousands of people back to prayer and closer to their FAITH. Throughout my journey with you (in daily prayer for Phil), I had grown to feel as though, she was an ANGELIC MESSENGER. I prayed "FOR HER" daily, and will continue to pray "TO HER," to be my added Guardian Angel. May God Bless you all with the strength that you need. With love, sympathy, and prayers...Annette and Dolly Fusca RIPOSA IN PACE, PHILOMENA :A TRUE GIFT FROM GOD!"

RIP sweet Philomena. Keep watch over your loved ones. You're a miracle just by bringing many that were not active in praying, back to prayer, believing in God and in the power of prayer. Truly amazing! You've touched so many with your story and how hard you fought to beat this terrible disease. I'm so sad you're not here. I'm also very sorry that your mom, dad, Marky and your family have lost you. God needed you for a bigger purpose. I know how much you loved God and your family too! Your amazing spirit will remain in my heart and in the hearts of many. Keeping your mom, dad, Marky, extended family, friends, and prayer warriors in my continued prayers. May God bless and keep you sweet angel❤

Heaven gained an angel who was an inspiration to all of us. Rest in Peace, Bean.
