Philip Lanigan Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
He was born March 20, 1952 in Waltham, MA. He graduated from Red Bank Catholic High School. Phil was co-owner of Lanigan Associates, Inc. in Tinton Falls for over 40 years.
He is predeceased by his daughter Valerie Danielle and his parents William and Dorothy Lanigan. Phil is survived by his wife Elizabeth, son Christopher (Mollie) and granddaughter Parker Quinn Lanigan. Sister, Kathleen Kocen of Fair Haven, brothers William (Kathy) Lanigan of Dryden, NY, John Lanigan of Oak Hill, VA and Joseph Lanigan of Shrewsbury. He also has numerous nieces and nephews.
Phil was a man of endless humor and always had a smile on his face. His love of golf was short lived here on Earth but he will surely make up for it now. He will be forever missed by his family and friends.
Relatives and friends are welcome to attend the Graveside Service on Friday, Dec. 8th at 11:30 AM at Mt. Olivet Cemetery, Middletown. A repass at the family home in Shrewsbury will follow. In lieu of flowers please donate to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital at https://www.stjude.org/donate. All services are under the direction of the Thompson Memorial Home, Red Bank.

Death never comes at a convenient time and is always a shock to family and friends . It was just yesterday when my 18 year old self entered my first day working at Jack´s Music Shoppe in downtown Red Bank. Phil and Joe, (the Beaver Brothers), took me by the hand and got me through that first day. It was like a little family. I so looked up to the both of you as much so you will never know.Phil always with a smile upon his face and his good nature helped me so much throughout my time working there. I went to see their group a few times and both had wonderful songs and great singing voices. There aren´t too many genuine people around these days and it was such a pleasure to know someone like you. Rest easy Phil,...... your home
