Dear Phil, I wish you were here for me to tell you this, but I love you. I am never one to express my feelings well and I am regretting now that I never got to tell you directly. I am so happy that our parents met and we were able to share so many memories with you. You were a very neat kid and we enjoyed all of your wise cracks. I laugh about every time you were annoyed by my mom (like everyday) because she was always telling you what to do or nagging you. That's what Mom's do! She loves you very much. I know that you loved her too. I am sooo sorry you had to go through what you did. God has his reasons and I keep telling myself it is because your mom needed you to come home so you could help her watch over the rest of the family and to be their guardian angel. And that, I am sure you will be. Mom, I want to thank you for being there for him and caring for him in the way that you did. You filled in for the kids needs when Nancy passed and the kids need you. Your an awesome Mom and I wouldn't trade you for the world. To Paul Sr. (Dad), I know that you have had some really rough times and I can not imagine what it is like to lose a son. I am so sorry for all that you have gone through. My only hope is that you will make your life the best it can possibly be and enjoy my mom and rest of the kids, as they need you. I love you Paul. Paul Jr., Laurie and Michelle, I love you all. I feel as though you are my real siblings. I care for each of you and your families (the Lemieux's) as if I have always known you. I hope that because of Phil, this will bring us much closet together. I sympathize for you and what you have gone through the last 7 years. Just know now that your Mom and Phil are looking down on you and are very greatful and proud of people you turned out to be. When you are feeling down, remember all of the good times you were able to share together. Phil was an awesome kid and he will be greatly missed by us all. Hang in there and carry on with your lives knowing that your mom and Phil are watching over you every step of the way. 
With Love Always- Lisa##imported-begin## Lisa Kinnucan (step-sister)##imported-end##
