I would like to thank the Bodeau and the Companion family for being a testimony of God's unconditional love. My purpose was to stand along side my best friend but little did I know that God's purpose was even bigger. I witnessed God's unconditional love right before my eyes. And because of this, I came by for more visits so that I would receive the blessings over and over. Most of all, because of this, I have a different sense of appreciation for God's blessings, my family and friends. Thank you Uncle for leaving us a legacy that will always be remembered.
Matthew 25:23
His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!'
Rest in peace, Uncle...

We will surely miss his loving and caring personality. I strongly pray for continued strength, guidance, comfort, and support for my brother and his Ohana and the entire Bodeau Ohana.
Jesus said, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die." John 11:25-26
Papa Philip has left his earthly life but is now living gloriously with our Heavenly Father and Lord Savior Jesus Christ in everlasting life.
God Bless and with caring Love,
Jason and Janelle Companion

Sorry for your loss. I worked with Pierre for about 15 years at Budget Rent a Car. He was always a hard, good worker. It's hard to imagine anything could slow him down. I considered him a friend. The loss will be deeply felt. Please accept condolences from me and my wife.
