We were deeply saddened to learn of Phillip's passing, our "across the street" neighbor for 27 years. His friendship was one that we treasured and we always knew that it was he who relocated our trash and recycle bins back underneath our carport after the regularly scheduled pick up occurred and before we returned home from work. He was good soul, a wonderful neighbor and will be missed. Our hearts are with the Purdom Family in loving remembrance of our friend.

II like to remember Phillip as the little boy who would run the short distance from his house to where his Granny and Grandpa Lewis lived.They never knew when he might pop in. And many times it might be the highlight of the day.Other times it could' be one of his four siblings who brought them joy. These were my parents who doted on them and relished the love they received in return.Even though their rules for them were a bit slacker than the ones of my upbringing, it was one of the many things I admired about them because of the joy these and all of their grandchildren brought to them. Rest in peace, Phillip. Granny and Grandpa are waiting for you.
