Phil's family meant the world to her. She tried not to let her lifelong health challenges with her lung condition slow her down until she had no choice during the last couple of years. A Prayer Service was held on Thursday, October 10, 2013 at 7:30 p.m. in the Chapel of Hall Funeral Services, Estevan. The Funeral Mass was celebrated on Friday, October 11, 2013 at 2:00 p.m. at St. John the Baptist R.C. Church, Estevan, by Rev. Brian Meredith. Interment followed at the Estevan City Cemetery, Estevan. Those so wishing may make donations to the Saskatchewan Lung Association in Phil's memory. The family is grateful for the care Mom received from the wonderful nurses and staff of Estevan Homecare. Special thank you to Dr. Christie for her health care provided over many years.
