So sorry to hear of Phil's passing. I used to see a lot of Phil and Carol when Elana went to Mercy Montessori. They were involved, loving parents, and a very close couple.
May the love of their family and friends comfort Carol and their children/grandchildren.

Phil Friedman was a fine man. I am lucky to have known him.
He told me he was honored to have served in Vietnam.
He said of his passing, better him then a young enlisted man with a family.
I hope he has found peace.

How many of us served in Vietnam? Phil Friedman was a True Patriot saying .... better him serving in Vietnam than a young enlisted man with a family. Phil made Vietnam Veterans as one of his memorial contributions..
Although I didn't go to Vietnam - I was commissioned as a 2nd Lieutenant in the Army Infantry from ROTC after graduating from UC. As a platoon leader, I have thought many times what it would had been like fighting in Vietnam. I give Phil much credit for serving there. It sounds like it left a profound impression on him.

I served my time there - when look on-line at pictures of where I was during my tour, it's quite a shock - one place (Nha Trang) is now a resort!
