Phil was a reassuring presence at Blessed Sacrament; reassuring in the way he was an example and herald of responsible and accountable stewardship and of being "(your) brothers keeper". I was not aware of his active civic life until after he passed. What a soul he was, and even more so now, is. Let us pray for the joyful repose of his soul, and for his intentions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5008041267630372313.post-15109943076095008282010-11-12T10:30:24.986-08:002010-11-12T10:30:24.986-08:00You are so right about Phil.

What came across the most for me was his cheerful, eager, childlike interest in life. Was it true that the city council observed a minute of silence in his honor at one of their meetings shortly after his death?<br />I'll bet he enjoyed that from his "perch" in the afterlife. Blessed Philip, pray for us.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
