With my heartfelt sympathy to you, Gloria & all the Kramper family.
I had the pleasure of working with Phil at AAA for almost all of his 33 years. I looked forward to each day as he always had a great smile, letting me know about any AAA gossip & always a funny story to tell. I know Phil had many many friends & I’m so proud to have been one of them. His memory will remain with me always. Love, Elaine McKinney

My Dear Uncle, you will be missed. You helped me laugh, walked me down the aisle, were there for all of us when our dad died, fought for our country and our rights, taught me how to swim and so many more memories in my life. Thank you for your bravery, your support and most of all your love.

Thank you dad for teaching me so many things. You taught me how to cook, how to work on things that were broken, how to take care of my family. You instilled in me a strong work ethic and sense of purpose.
I am glad you are in no more pain and that you were with the Lord. My heart is broke because I can never pick up the phone and ask for your advice. But I know I will see you in heaven one day. I love you dad.
