My big bro since I was 15. ALWAYS a laughter to his voice and sneaky tricks to confuse or crack you up. Loved his bear hugs and his big place in the country. Farm fresh eggs and one time we watched as he “pulled” a calf out of his momma who was having trouble while the other cows circled around her. This city girl loved all the critters. Phil, I will miss you until we meet again in eternity. Make ‘em laugh! ✝
