Philly, Tanya and I will miss you dearly. We will always keep you in our memory. We will never forget the good times we shared. When we would go to Frankies and have a couple drinks and a few laughs. Listen to the old Italian mob hits on the juke box. You were my best new friend. I will miss sharing stories about Brooklyn and the City. We will see you again Philly. But not yet. Love you Buddy
