[pianotech] Webb Phillips' passing

[Don Mannino]

Oh Ruth, what sad news.  But I know it is a relief from a lot of pain and
difficulty for Webb.

Webb was truly the life of the party, and a solid background worker, for the
PA state PTG organization for so many years.  He truly left a legacy behind
with that organization, and with all of the individual technicians he
influenced over time.

Dear Friends,
Webb died Thursday evening. We had held a fun and festive celebration for
him for the Golden Hammer last month, trying to recreate the banquet
experience I got to enjoy. He had a wonderful time and knew what the award
meant. His primary ailment was Parkinson's, and he was enjoying life up to
the end.  
Arrangements are private in keeping with his wishes.
