I am trying to think of what Phil meant to me-- the man who introduced me to audiences or gatherings with a flourish and made me feel like a grande dame. The guy who always helped me scoot where I needed to go. One of the few guitarists who could back me up spontaneously so I could sing it just the way I wanted. Someone who would show up at Severn's voice lessons and turn them into a time for stories, advice, and just plain fun. A man always making up dreams for himself to fit into and happy to welcome anyone else into that shared experience. A smart man, A good man. A man who enjoyed the pleasures of living and brightened up the darkest corners....
