This is the type of memory I wish I could change . Miss your nice looking eyes Uncle. Hope you are enjoying the life you and Dad share know in Heaven
Love Always Rose

Steph must have inherited all his wonderful attributes...sad times.

Uncle Phil taught me and David, my little brother, to fly fish, what a gift that was for both of us. From my very earliest memories I knew he loved me. I don’t remember him ever speaking an unkind word to me. My favorite, favorite, favorite, memory was probably my wedding day. Uncle Phil and Auntie Mimi let me use their back yard to get married. I was so young; I could not even get into a bar, but I wanted to have a special day full of the love of family. My uncle made it a wonderful day for me. He even did all the fussing a dad would do to make sure I had a great day, which was delightful and kind of cute because my dad was doing that too.  He helped with the planning right along with everyone else. My auntie Mimi and my mom did an amazing job making it a beautiful ceremony. Everyone did so much fussing, I really didn’t get to do anything. My dad walked me down the aisle beaming like I imagined a dad would, and I saw my uncle watching me and I knew in his heart he was giving me away too. To me that was the kind of man he was. He was a man of integrity that loved me more than I deserved and showed me in little ways and big ones too. Even in my not so great memory’s he was there supporting and helping us. When we lost David, it was my Uncle Phil that made sure we had the money to bury my brother. He made sure we never went without anything we needed.  He has always been there, a light on my path. When family struggled, he struggled with us! When we celebrated victories, he celebrated with us. That is the legacy he leaves behind. 
My Uncle will be missed. Yet I know with all my heart that I do not have to mourn his passing because I will see him again when our Heavenly Father calls me home. So, this is not my goodbye, this is until we meet again. I love you Uncle Phil. Nanci Rae


Tia I am so sorry for your loss of tio, but at least my Dad and Mom were there to greet him in to Heaven. 
Love you with all my Heart.

I remember my uncle as a very tough man, with a voice that was so unique that ever time I would hear him talking, no matter what about, I would always stop and listen. And although he was a big strong man and kinda scary when I was young, he always was so kind and loving to me. Well except for the time he scolded me for having a weed pipe in my hand during hunting one year, but I told him it wasn't mine. And of course he believed me ( not). But it really wasn't hahaha. You know I will really miss my Uncle Phil, but I see him every time I see Auntie Mimi. I Love them both dearly. Till we might in heaven uncle, I'll see you later.
Love, Bug in the Rug
