Ranetta and Family:

I am so sorry for your loss of a great police sergeant. Phil was a very hard worker and so were you when you worked with me in the Narcotics Section. I knew you and Phil were always loyal to CPD and to me personally. You guys made such a great couple. I will keep you both in my prayers.

Uncle Phil was a true Uncle to us as kids. I will always hold a part of him in my heart when I think back on my childhood. I'm sad the years passed without much communication, a reminder that time is temporary and love who you have while you have them. Wish I could be at the service, but I now live out of state. My prayers are with everyone he touched, we all lost a great man
