Phillip was a much loved and devoted father, husband, son, and brother. He graduated from Central Kitsap High School in Silverdale, Washington in 2000, and from Portland State University in 2005. That same year, he married his high school sweetheart, Katie Skiff, and they had two beautiful daughters, Lily Victoria and Maya Elizabeth.
Phillip was a family man; having many friends and co-workers who adored him. He loved to hike, bike, and wear whacky tee-shirts; he loved music, especially when he could play piano and sing with his girls.
Phil is survived by his wife and two daughters; parents, David and Patricia Hatzenbuehler of Elgin, Oklahoma; brothers, Israel Michael and Michael David Hatzenbuehler of Dallas- Ft. Worth, Texas; numerous cousins; nieces and nephews; and his lifelong bestfriend, James Riley of Portland, Oregon.
