I sat next to Phil for several years and had the pleasure to work with him on several important projects. I appreciated his friendship and humor throughout.
Phil was my next door neighbor for 20 years. He was invaluable to me as a young single mom, always willing to offer advice and help with my house. Picking up packages, always a kind or funny word at the mailbox. His peanut butter balls at Christmas were out of this world. He is deeply missed as I know I will never have such a nice person again to share a property line with.
I remember my cousin Philip as a joyful, brilliant young man.
I even have a picture of his bar mitzvah that I will eventually find.
Philip managed to contact me after many years of not being in touch.
We would speak occasionally and I found him to be the wonderful caring and brilliant person he was as a child.
I will miss him deeply as well as many I'm sure.
May he rest in peace.

Phil’s holiday gingerbread houses from back in the day were amazing. I had the pleasure of working with Phil and being his neighbor. Will miss him and his personality plus.
Whenever Phil would see me, he always drew out my name Paaaaaam! I, in turn, would call out Phiiiiiiiil! What a character and great friend Phil has been over the years. He will truly be missed!
