Raleigh Philps Passed Away A message from Raleigh Philp's close friend, John Karns... After having bloodwork done because he was not feeling well, Raleigh Philp was admitted to diagnosed with High Grade Mylodisplastic Syndrome (MDS) with a variation called RAEB. He also developed a bleed in his head. The degree of bleeding along with his aggressive condition did not allow him to recover. He passed away on June 21st. The family requests no flowers please. If someone is interested in donations they can simply donate to the City of Hope in Duarte, as this is where Raleigh spent his last week. As this was so unexpected and Raleigh was so vibrant and energetic most everyone is simply shocked. It seems everyone knowing Raleigh felt he was a special friend and his relationships with people were so diverse it is hard to contact everyone; hence posting this message to help share the information.
