I’m so sorry to hear about Phillip. He was a classmate and a good friend. We went to school, played in the high school band, and attended the same church together. My sympathy to his family.

I had the honor of working with Phil for a couple of summers painting various parts of the school while he worked at Mitchell Schools. It was hard work but we had a good time. I'll never forget the time he called the oldies station he listened to and requested "Chain Gang" for the custodial crew. Only Phil. Rest easy, Fletch...and thanks for the memories.
