You could use MySQL to do this for you,

$result = mysql_query("SELECT DATE_FORMAT(my_timestamp, '%M %d, %Y) AS my_timestamp FROM some_table WHERE id=42", $DB_CONN);
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$formatted_date = $row['my_timestamp'];
echo $formatted_date;

Or use PHP,

$result = mysql_query("SELECT my_timestamp FROM some_table WHERE id=42", $DB_CONN);
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$formatted_date = strftime('%B %d, %y', $row['my_timestamp']);
echo $formatted_date;
