10 years ago Phil in Jax passed, leaving a major void, not just in my life, but all who knew him.
I will toast him this afternoon, cause, as some of you know, he was more a friend, he was a Mentor and someone that I could go to for anything.
I loved him like a Father and he looked at me like a Son (and road my ass if he thought I was screwing up too)\

I will head to Hooters (he and I had lunch there every Friday with some other car guys) and toast Phil with a good Scotch.

To Phil.. Friend, Broth, Mentor, you are deeply missed

Dang, has it been that long?

I'll have to wait until this evening and have a shot of bourbon in his honor

Wow 10yrs already. I remember sending him some 914 toy cars when he was sick.
RIP Phil.

Ten years... Sometimes it seems like yesterday. I was never lucky enough to meet your friend. But I remember him just the same from your posts. Remember the good times when your toasting him today.

Sounds like the kind of guy the world needs lots more of. Wish I had been around here to meet him, but offering a toast nonetheless.

...........

Wow, 12 years, still miss him.
Having my annual lunch at Hooters.

I still remember Phil. Super nice guy. You start off talking about the part you want to buy from him and before you know it an hour has gone by and you're friends.

Here's to Phil

RIP Phil.

Time for the annual toast to Phil.
