Phil committed suicide in September of 1991.  He was 32 years old.  There was a tremendous outpouring of love and support at his memorial service.  I especially remember a very heart-felt (and humorous -- thank you!) tribute by Dave Nemer, Phil's teaching colleague at San Antonio High School.  Students of Phil's also stood up to relate what my brother meant to them and the stories were remarkable and appreciated.

I still get a catch in my throat when I hear a Led Zeppelin, U2 or Sting song.  Phil had such an affinity for their music and message.

You are  remembered and loved, always, Phil!

Your sister,

Barb
