Phillip was the best brother ever . I love him a lot. I sure do miss him almost every day. He love to bar-be-que. The meat tasted so good to me! Now he does that in heaven. Thank you sweet Jesus for him.

Susan, Chance, Chris and Rachel,
I can't express how sorry I am over the loss of Phillip. He and I went to school together, later became neighbors, but most important he was my friend.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and his family.
