  3. I still don’t want this to be true. I hope, Phillip that your pain is far less than I am imagining it must be. I pray for you every day. May our prayers and well wishes help you float to a better place. We’ll all be with you as you journey to that place.

  4. My condolences to you Phillip and may all the love of family and friends surround you and keep you strong during this time. I love you both and will miss him dearly. I’ll even miss finding his lost cig case. He would always say " Its just a cheap little case but…" LOL
