Phil ran an inspirational blog for recovering addicts. I have read his last entry quite a few times since his death. I think that last entry is a great legacy to leave (along with all of the other good Phil did). I think even non-addicts will find it inspirational. Here is the URL:

I once read a study that claimed that crack and meth drug addicts have only a 2% chance of death by any means other than something drug related.

I also have heard many times that only 2% of us will have a positive net worth when we retire at the age of 65… 98% of us will be broke.

Phil beat the odds in at least two ways. He was clearly a winner by any measurement. I look forward to seeing him again on the other side.

I appreciate his guidance on this side.

This is to express my heartfelt thanks to you for unleashing this sad but very important news to the internet community and friends. Of a truth this is such a shocking news and quite devastating. I was first introduced to Phil by George, your Operations Manager in January at North Carolina during your Members Secret Seminar. As a Newbie I was looking for someone who could help me out in getting a website out there and that is where George introduced me to Phil who was sitting way at the back of the room with his small laptop. We became friends right there and then and I loved his good sense of humor. He did advice me on many things regarding web hosting and internet marketing as a whole. When I met him in last April at Big Seminar 7 in Atlanta it was like old buddies met again. Phil will indeed be missed greatly and to his beloved wife Jody and the family left behind I pray the good Lords comfort and consolement to them all. May the Peace from God which passeth all earthly understanding abide and keep you all in this great loss.

Shalom.

I too was shocked by the news, and devastated by the loss of Phil and his father-in-law.

Having known Phil for several years, I too felt blessed in having him as a friend and will miss him (and the wisdom he so gratiously was always willing to share).

Playing a small part in bringing Phil and Jody together, I was able to witness a transformation in him – in the love he had for life, Jody, his family and his many friends.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Jody and their families, and although we can never understand the reasoning for His timing for calling us home – we are all lucky and grateful for the time Phil spent with us here on Earth.

God Bless you Phil!

And sadly, like Cory, he’s now passed away, also in a car accident. The world has lost a great person, our community has lost one of it’s finest minds, but you know what? Stuff the world, and the community.

For those of us lucky enough to have known him, we lost a friend. And Jody and his families have lost something even worse: a husband, and a father.

I know you’ll all be remembered in our prayers. God bless, and take care.

God Bless.

Phil was the kind of guy who made you felt glad that you knew him. He will be missed by a lot of people.
