I still find it hard that a dear friend of mine from college has recently passed away, far too young. If he could be a flower, it would be the sunflower. Because it’s the one flower that is known for making people feel happy, and that’s what Phillip did, he was loved by all, always smiled and made sure you were smiling and laughing along with him.
