Philip Skriver
1947 – 2015
Mr. Philip “Phil” Wayne Garth Skriver of Stirling, beloved husband of Mrs. Bonnie Skriver, passed away suddenly on Tuesday, July 7, 2015 at the age of 67 years.
Besides his loving wife of 50 years, Bonnie, Phil is survived by his daughters “The Golden Child” Terri Lynn (George) Kalesnikoff, “The Prodigal Daughter” Lori Faye Skriver, and “The Spoiled Baby” Amanda Dawn (Justin) Anderson; grandchildren Kelly Don Miller, Randi Lynn Miller, Kadi Alyssa Miller and Ethan Charles Sinclair Anderson; brother Robert Douglas Skriver; as well as numerous nieces, nephews and their families.
Loving husband, father, grandfather, brother, and uncle, he will be remembered for his passion for music and motorcycles. Phil was an avid musician in the music scene of Southern Alberta. Since the late 1970’s he continued to entertain local fans, including the Happy Trails Gang, right up until his death. He derived great pleasure from riding his bike and took every opportunity to go out and ride when the weather permitted.
We picture him in heaven playing his music, mowing the lawn, having coffee with his family, and helping anyone who needs it with his own special style of “Mr. Fixit”.
A Memorial Service will be held at 1:00pm on Saturday, July 11, 2015 at THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER DAY SAINTS, 413 – 3 Street, Stirling. Interment to follow in the Stirling Cemetery.
