My childhood is full I of great memories with the Rustine family. I will forever hold a conversation I had with Phil after my own father passed close to my heart. Jane, April, Tammy, Terry and Michael my thoughts and prayers are with you.

I spent much of my childhood at my Uncle Phil and Aunt Jane's house. Memories of many bbq's, people getting tossed in the pool, hanging with my cousins Terri, Tammy, April and Michael, but mostly many laughs...my dad Jack and my Uncle Phil were like 2 kids when they were together. While it saddens me deeply that my Uncle Phil is no longer with us, it comforts me and I hope his family too, that he is more than likely laughing with my dad again. RIP Uncle Phil...and say Hi to dad for me.
