Dear Family



I am sending you my heartfelt sympathies on the recent death of a wonderful, father, brother and very special uncle. Phillip will always be remembered for what he was and how lucky for you to have had him. Phillip has left his mark on everyone that he touched. What a legacy. But it is not often that we go through life and have the opportunity to meet and know someone so special. May all his great qualities get you through this trying time.



Fondly,

Edie Orleans
