The Steiger family were great neighbors. My mom and dad talked fondly of the family. Phil was always a good friend and school chum.

I am very sorry to hear that Phil had passed away.
I met Phil when he corresponded at State Fidelity Savings many years ago and I have fond memories working with Phil. we tried to stay in touch but we both moved about and it was infrequent. Phil had a wonderful sense of humor, was very intelligent and just a wonderful person. He will be missed. Respectfully, Greg Lockard.
