Jodi Thompson wrote a sympathy message

“Phil and I both began our careers at KNAZ TV. In time, we both moved on to positions elsewhere. I am sorry to say that I had not kept in touch with him and now desperately wish I had ! I will always remember Phil as a cool, quiet, talented television production genius who had a sense of humor that outweighed every difficult tv production situation. My heart goes out to all of those who knew and loved this wonderful man. He is in my heart forever. Jodi Hofmann Thompson”
