We will always remember Phil and our camping trips. Our kids will always remember how kind he was to them and treated them as his own. Our prayers are with Ellen and the boys.

He was a good and kind man. I will miss him when I come to Colorado Springs

June 14, 2015

In memory of my good friend and brother in law for the past 57 years, since we first got together in Wichita. We had a wonderful relationship friends first, then family, marrying sisters. We never had any differences and always cared for each other enjoying our time together, either using our RV's or at our times shares in Cancun. You will be missed for the rest of my life. I hope we meet again on the other side. God Bless you Phil. My heart goes out to Ellen and your family, you were a great husband and father. Dick Carlburg & family.
