Philip Compilli Obituary

Philip Bruce Compilli passed away peacefully in his home with his wife, Deborah by his side. Bruce was born in Salinas, CA. He and his wife, of 54 years, raised their family and worked in CA until they moved to Wickenburg in 2021. Bruce greatly appreciated the rural atmosphere of this area. At 19 years of age, he was drafted into the U.S. Army and served honorably for two years. Bruce had a knack for mechanics, starting with his first motorcycle, then progressing to autos and semi-trucks. Bruce was a partner in a heavy haul trucking company for 25 years, where his expertise was evident. Bruce, his family and friends enjoyed snow skiing, water skiing, camping and fishing. He was always up for anything out of doors. His passion for Harley Davidson motorcycles brought him a lifetime of enjoyment. Bruce is survived by his wife, their two daughters, Angela Compilli and Annette Harford, her husband Gage Harford, two granddaughters, his two brothers, Joe and Nick Compilli, and numerous nieces and nephews. He is preceded in death by his parents, Dominic and Donna Compilli, and his oldest brother Kraig Hogan. He will be greatly missed by his family and friends.
