Our sincere sympathy to Angela and the Pollice family !
In the few times I had the pleasure of being in Dr. Phil’s company he touched my heart in a way that I’ll never forget.. was so looking forward to spending more time with him and his wife. But God had a better plan for him. He is safe, at rest and we can celebrate his beautiful life on earth knowing that his heavenly life will be eternal happiness with God. A wonderful man!
( Hope Dr. Phil gives the angels some tips on gnocchi making for heavenly Italian feasts , 🙏🍝😇)
