I looked up to Phil growing up on Overbrook Street...He was the oldest boy...I was the youngest girl... he always had a very caring way to him. We spent many a christmas eve together when I was very young. I always think of him fondly everytime I drive past his parent's house on the way to my mom's. I always will. He will be missed and not forgotten. My thoughts and prayers go out to his entire family. Bless you

Our thoughts and prayers go out to everyone in Phil's family. Although we only knew Phil for a brief time, it was obvious to us how much he loved, and adored his children. This must be an incredibly difficult time for Sophia and Joey. Our hearts go out to them at this time, and during the days ahead.

Philip, the young man who vaulted my fence with one hand to help me with my sick pet. Philip, the father who stood outside in his back yard with Sophia and Joey throwing an endless number of balls to help better their new and and aspiring baseball careers. Philip, the handsosme young man with so very much to give. I will miss the comfort it gave me to know that you were just a shout away. May God hold you close to his heart and grant your soul peace. I will miss you so.

No matter what, Phil will be in all of our hearts as an awesome coach and a loving father. My prayers, and my whole family's prayers, go out to his family right now, especially Sophia and Joey. This must have been especially hard for them. Know that the Gaglianos will always be there to lend a helping hand no matter what, no matter where. Phil was a great coach and was great with the kids and we will always remember him.
