Philip was more than just my friend, he was my brother. 38 years ago, we met in his salon and became best friends. Philip always knew my hair and what it could and could not do. If I came in with an unrealistic idea for my hair, he would explain why it wouldn't work with my hair type and suggest another style. He aced it everytime. I soon learned that all I had to do is show up for my appointment, take a seat and allow Philip to work his magic.
My heart aches, knowing our friendship here on earth has come to an end but I know you're no longer weak and in pain and we'll be together again someday On Eagle's Wing
Love you my brother
