I have so many special memories of my Uncle Phil. When I was younger, I described him as a teddy bear. Every time I was around him, I wanted to have my arms around him. He made me feel loved and special no matter what. I remember loving to go over to Grandma's house when he lived there. The first thing I did each time was run around the house looking in the couch cushions and on the floor of his room for change. I used to find quite a bit of money! Another thing that made Phl so special to me was his relationship with my dad. They were inseperable. Phil made me laugh all the time and I will never forget him. It didn't matter how long went in between my visits, he always made me feel like I just saw him. I love you Uncle Phil!

My dear Uncle. I already miss you tremendously. I have the fondest memories of you with all the time we have spent together. I grew up with you near. The bulk of my time that I spent by your side was working with you at Maxs, when you and daddy owned the restaurant together. And when daddy passed you were right there to hold me and comfort me. I thank you for all the great memories and love you dearly!
