Philip proudly served in the Vietnam War in 1967-Company B-"Bushmaster"-4th Battalion-47th Infantry-9th Infantry Division. Philip was an avid outdoorsman. Hunting was his passion. Philip did not just put out a deer feeder and wait for the deer to come to him. Philip tracked them and harvested them the hard way. He loved spending time at his ranch in Richland Springs, Texas. His roots run deep in Bee Caves, Texas where he grew up. If you needed any type of help, Philip was there. He could fix anything from A to Z. His career was with LCRA in Austin, Texas until he retired after 20 years.
