    Our sympathies to you all as you celebrate your Dads life and recall wonderful memories made throughout the years. We enjoyed living two doors away from your family in Shakespeare. Phil provided a helping hand at a moments notice, shared the bounty of his labours in the garden with us often and gave us hours of entertainment with some of his amazing and ingenious mechanical creations in the backyard. We will remember him fondly.
