After learning of Phil Henry’s passing today, we were filled with a profound sense of sorrow. There was a time when Phil Henry was a member of the MGL. All of my heartfelt condolences go out to Phil’s family; may he finally find the tranquility he so desperately needs. His birth took place on February 8, 1950 in Lusk, Wyoming, and his parents, Marcella From and Charles D. Henry, were overjoyed to welcome him into the world. Both Douglas and Glenrock, Wyoming were both places where the family made their homes.
After Philip’s father passed away in 1954, Philip and his mother moved to Chadron, Nebraska, so that his mother could complete her studies and become a public school teacher. This was done in order to provide Philip with the opportunity to become a teacher. Philip maintained residences in Chadron, Torrington, and Lusk during the time when Marcella was involved in teaching. Throughout his time at school, he considered each of these locations to be his home. They left for Harrison at the conclusion of each summer and moved back there.
When Philip was in the sixth grade, he and his mother relocated back to Harrison, which is located in the northern part of Nebraska. After completing his secondary education at Harrison, Philip continued his education at Sioux County High School the following year, in 1968, before receiving his diploma. Following the completion of his studies at the University of Nebraska, he joined the United States Marine Corps in 1969 and was stationed in Vietnam for a period of time. After serving in the United States Marine Corps for two years, he was discharged with honor and won many commendations for his exceptional performance.
In addition to that, he was a member of the United States Marine Corps Reserves until the year 1975. Following his discharge from the military, he finally made his home in California and began working for the United States Postal Service, where he remained until 1978. Due to the fact that his route was one that was supposed to provide combat pay, it did not occur. During his time in California, he was also a co-owner of a woodworking shop that was known as the Wood Turn On. This establishment was located in the state of California.
Following his relocation to Harrison, he was able to secure employment with the C&NW Railway Company, where he remained employed for a considerable amount of time. After that, he started working in the Agate Fossil Beds National Monument, where he remained until his retirement in 2007. He retired in 2007. A ranch that was owned by Philip Peterson’s family was the location of Rosemary and Philip Peterson’s wedding ceremony, which took place on June 5, 2004, outside of Harrison, Nebraska. She gave him a Tommy Gun, which he had explicitly asked, rather than a wedding band, because he had decided not to have a wedding ring.
This was because he had taken the decision to not have a wedding rings. Since the commencement of their marriage, Rosemary and Philip have made the ranch their permanent residence here on the ranch. Philip was a passionate outdoorsman who enjoyed hunting and fishing. Creek fishing was his preferred method of fishing, and he did it rather frequently. During his earlier years, he had a strong interest in trapping animals and selling the furs that they produced. Philip excelled in the sport of shooting trap, which he enjoyed doing, and he was a formidable competitor in the sport. A was present.
a strong fondness for a wide variety of animals, but particularly for Rosemary’s Border Collie and his own in particular. Furthermore, he was an accomplished woodworker in addition to that. Reading was something that he took pleasure in doing, and he would regularly read ten novels or more in a single week.
