Phillip Edward Esslinger III

Miss you lots buddy. One of the very few good people I knew. Taken away from us way too soon. Will always remember the stupid and funny things we'd do in the games we played. The times you were there to just hang out and chat. The times we'd stay up until daylight and just hang out. Much love to you, buddy

Rest easy and rest well. We'll see you again, some day

The bond between a parent and a son is unbreakable, even by death. His love will always be with you. May the memories of your son´s love be your strength during this dark time. You have my deepest condolences.

I'll miss you, Phillip. We barely knew each other but we were cadets. I looked up to you the most. You were too young. Rest well and easy. See ya on the flip side.

When he was first born of how cute he was

RIP Phillip you will be missed by all who had the honor of spending one minute of time with you. Your time at RFHS NJROTC was amazing and I will cherish those times with you my friend. Thank you for always looking out for us instructors by bringing us chow and always doing it with a smile. You even bought my lunch at Eddie's the day before you left us, this goes to show your generous touch and kind heart! Fair Winds and Following Seas Shipmate!
