Phil,
Our very belated sympatthy goes out to you and your family for the loss of your wife. As we now live in Panma City Beach, I did not know about your loss until today, December 2015. I was searching for someone else in the San Benito News and accidentally found this obituary. I wish you and your family well.
Phil, MY prayers are with you and your family. We all really have some fond memories of Myrta Kay. Casey
