Phil was an avid hunter and fisherman who enjoyed spending time outdoors. He had a deep interest in history, was a devoted John Wayne fan, and proudly served in the United States Marine Corps Reserve. As a deeply patriotic man, there was something fitting about his peaceful passing on July 4th, 2026, as our nation celebrated its 250th anniversary. Above all, Phil’s greatest pride and joy was his family. He was a devoted father, proud grandfather, and loving great-grandfather who never missed an opportunity to celebrate his grandchildren’s accomplishments or brag about them to anyone who would listen. His quiet strength, unwavering love, and constant support will be deeply missed, and his legacy will live on through the family he loved so dearly. He will be forever loved, deeply missed, and always remembered.
