Dear Lyn, My prayers are with you and your family. I will miss Phils humor at our Haven events and our many great talks on anything and everything.
Dear Lyn, My deepest condolences to you and your family. I know how much all of you will miss Phil. One thing I’ll always remember about Phil is his sense of humor. Every time we’d talk, he’d make me laugh, and I remember him putting many smiles on your face as well. Remember those times. They will help you now and in the future. Love, Casey

Dan,
To you and your family, I offer heartfelt condolences from both Jan and me.
There are no words that can ease the pain and emptiness, but the following, sang at my son’s funeral, helped. I hope it can give some solace to all of you.
‘On Eagles Wings’
You who dwell in the shelter of the Lord
who abide in His shadow for life,
say to the Lord: ‘My refuge,
my God in whom I trust!’
And He will raise you up on eagles’ wings,
bear you on the breath of dawn,
make you to shine like the sun,
and hold you in the palm of His hand.
The snare of the fowler will never capture you,
and famine will bring you no fear:
under His wings your refuge,
His faithfulness your shield.
And He will raise you up on eagles’ wings,
bear you on the breath of dawn,
make you to shine like the sun,
and hold you in the palm of His hand.
I am very sorry to hear of your loss. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers.
Dear Dan
Our deepest condolences on the loss of your father.
We wish you strength and faith in this time of grief.

Dear Dan,
I would like to express our deepest condolences for the loss of your father, my uncle. Since I am a pet lover and have two lovely dogs, I was moved by the fact that Uncle Philip and Aunt Lynn found the time to volunteer at Animal Haven.
I hope we can meet again soon.
I’d like to send you warm regards from Israel and encouragement at these challenging times.
Peace and Love,
Sharone and Eli Kravez
