Hey Boss:

Yesterday might have been marked by profound sadness, but today is a new day. Phil is alive and well inside all the people he touched with his unique brand of influence, and in that way, his immortality is ensured.

I have a new memory to share with all of you - listen to this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ue2rpU_Mk44

This song is the last one Phil and I ever 'connected' on and discussed - when we spent those fun days in Red Bank NJ for the Kevin Smith events. He spoke of how this song was 'life defining' for him and loved how the negative lyrics were placed against such an immensely positive backdrop of music. Now it's endemic of the pain and joyful yin/yang that permeates through our memories of him. He would hush up everyone around him and make us listen intently to the awakening cresendo at the end, which he then proclaimed as his favorite 30 seconds of music ever.

Listen to it in solitude and I'm sure you'll feel that same wonderful connection to him that I'm lucky enough to be able to conjure up at will. Enjoy..

Peace, Love, and Magic...

Today if Philip's birthday....his 35th. I went to the cemetery this morning for a "visit". I've been profoundly sad today; some days are tougher than others. Rest in Peace my beautiful son; you brought so much joy to so many during your all too brief time here. I miss you very much....what an understatement!

Dennis, nice to see your posting.
Renee' would have been 61 today....impossible to believe that I met the girl I'd marry/mother of our children almost 46 years ago. Do you recall what year she passed away?

God Howard your post touched me so . . . thinking of Phil dressed up and picking out pumpkins with you-I MISS HIM!! And yet even in that one dream at the basketball game he asked me why I missed him? Like he was still here (well we were at a game together). But since I have had so many dreams about him. I have had several experiences and really need to tell the BLUE ROSE tattoo story. It just took my breath away. He has never left me. But we must keep him alive I feel via this board. I also have a magician story. I know Phil is helping me with my music I am writing now. I would ask him, "Phil how can I BEST remember you and live with you everyday?" I think what I get from him is LIVE YOUR DREAMS NIKKI AND I LIVE THEM WITH YOU! I know he is pushing HARD for me re this album and my book. So I must post re the blue rose story because it was so REAL. I would love to pray to have Phil visit me again in my dreams! And pray to bring Howard renewed comfort, love, and assurance that Phil is always with him. And to help heal his heart re these losses. Thank you. We can't give up and quit! Phil would never stand for it-Nikki

The message board has been very quiet; 6 months since anyone posted; maybe it has served it's usefulness.
Today is Halloween; surely Philip's favorite holiday. We always spent plenty of time preparing the house (and property)...shopping for the biggest pumpkin we could find...then he'd get into his makeup; always quite an elaborate make-up session. RIP Philip..I and your friends truly miss you. You touched so many people in a special way. Love, Dad

Amazing friend you know I have thought of you for days now! So today I was drawn finally to take a break and walk outside to enjoy the first few hints of oncoming Spring. I left work and walked in this lovely old neighborhood and what came to me was "Phil! I must see a blue rose today-could God/Spirit make that happen? . . ." How I couldn't imagine. So I went to my tattoo appt. (working on the flower piece to cover the huge scar on leg from accident in NY). As I looked up I saw a large photo of art with three blue roses-YOU. YOU YOU YOU! I knew only you could or would do that. It's not as though blue rose sightings are especially common. But it was the timing, the moment, everything-thank you for your gift shining on me to show u never leave. I need to rent Gatsby again (not since 2000). You are always with me Phil. I thought of Venezia's today while getting the tattoo worked on (OUCH!!) I knew you were with me. I love you so much. I just wish we could do dinner-heck, maybe we did this past summer at Bucca-bless you Phil.

Phil...
       Thank you for believing in beauty, for your magic, poetry, roses, laughs, and love. You are greatly loved remembered and missed but your presence is felt and noted by the lives you touched. "Keep in touch, I'm "hear" for you".

  I met a lady whose life you touched the night before last. (you asked tony to take care of her through her Jr High years) I was reminded how I miss you and wish I could have your perspective on my own trials as of late. Thank you for all Phil. Miss you brother.
