Ralph Phillips Obituary

It is with great sadness that we must announce the passing of our dear father, grandfather, friend and companion Ralph Phillips on January 15, 2017, after a fierce battle with cancer.

Predeceased in 2009 by his wife of almost 50 years, Bev, his parents and brothers and sisters, Ralph leaves behind his daughter Lori (Vern), son Russell (Kim), grandchildren Ryan, Alexandra and Rylee and companion and friend Suzanne. He will also be missed by his many close friends and relatives here in Canada and also in Yuma, Arizona where he spent the winters.

Special thanks to the wonderful staff at Saanich Peninsula Hospice and to Dr. Liebscher for taking such great care of Ralph and helping our family through this difficult time.

No funeral at Ralph's request but a celebration of life will be held at the Sidney Legion at 1660 Mills Road on Friday January 20th at 2pm.

Those that wish may remember Ralph with a donation to BC Cancer Centre.

Hi Russ . I just saw this today and always wondered how he was doing. I worked for him and norm for a lot of years. He made me a good tile setter which allowed me to become a successful contractor. I have a memory of you sitting on my new Kawasaki when you lived in spring ridge subdivision. He was an amazing talented man.
