I will always remember my uncle dearly. His bright blue eyes were so kind and he had a handsome face with a smile that was so very distinguished. I can not recall him ever angry and his laughter was always abundant. Be well a uncle Phil and I know you are enjoying paradise with my parents , your sister and brother in law and grandma and grandpa too. No more suffering here in this mortal world my love.
My heart goes out to the family. Leigh and all the kids please celebrate as he would want a party surely and I send all my love and hugs out to you all.
Love Karina

My dad! I am proud to say that I got my blue eyes from him. I am also proud to say that I was the first child out of the 5 ahead of me that he was able to be in the delivery room when I was born! I will always smile when I think of all the funny little sayings he came up with at the drop of a dime! and his love for peanut butter and Smuckers Jelly! I remember when we received a package at the house one year. It was an entire case of smuckers jelly! He had written them once letting them know how awesome their jelly was! He was so thrilled with their way of thanking him! Nobody could clean a dinner plate quite like my dad! I love you forever daddy and I am glad your at peace. Give gramma, grandpa, KayKay, and Jeff hugs and kisses! I will miss you dearly! Your daughter and 6th child!
