Happy Birthday Phill

What a joy to wish our son, Phill
a Happy Birthday!


Phill is quiet-spirited like his dad.  He is full of wisdom and laughter!  Such a great combination.
He loves to work ~ and figure out a project ~ and bring it to completion.
He is kind.  He thinks of others, before himself.
Loves music and sports.

 A great husband.


Great father.




 

 It seems like yesterday ~ precious days!




Phill, you are a blessing to us and so many.

We wish you a FANTASTIC birthday.
We love you!
