If y'all are still reading these messages to him, tell him I'm going through his ammo supply right now, that'll get him up and at 'em!

Godspeed to you, BBS, on whatever journey The Lord has planned for you.

God Speed Phillip! Hope we meet where were going next. Your family there and here will miss your presence but for a short while. Bless Hospice for their good work. They helped ease my Mother to the next existence. And it was a very good thing they were there for us. Gods Peace and Understanding to the family, and Us.

I am very sorry to hear about your dad and our extended internet family member. Praying for him and your family during these difficult times. Sending positive vibes y’all’s way.

Thank you for giving us an update. Please know your father is a well-respected member of this forum, as nine pages of good thoughts and prayers will attest. I always enjoyed his posts and his contribution to this community. I know you have, but please continue to tell you father that we are praying for him and for comfort to you and all of your family. Please let us know if we can do anything for you. Blessings!

Phillip was probably THE first SIGForum member I met in person at a SF shoot he organized probably 10+ years ago. Thanks to him, over the years I got to meet some amazing people, many of whom I call close, personal friends now.
(I even got to meet his wife, quite by chance, due to her work.)

From the first or second SF Shoot with yours truly...


Phillip, ruger357, Smitty908 and myself regularly met for lunch just to hang out, BS, talk guns, and plan the next shoot. Over the years the lunches slowed down in frequency as life tended to get in the way, but we all stayed in touch.

If you knew him for more than 5 minutes, you knew he was an honest, genuine, passionate man who loved his God, his family, and went out of his way to be in service to others. He truly embodied someone with a servant's heart..just one of those people you enjoyed meeting and were lucky you could call a friend.

I feel blessed that I got to meet up with him in February for a couple of lunches.
To give you an idea of his outlook on things - he wanted me to install night sights on his M&Ps. That's the mentality of a fighter...

I will miss my friend, but know he'll be in a better place and that his suffering will soon be over.

(And can you can't mention BigBoreShooter if you didn't mentioned the one firearm he was most known for (and probably the most-coveted of his extensive collection Wink )
His Birdshead Ruger Vaquero in 45LC. He was known for bringing "spicy, Ruger-only" loads.) Big Grin


I enjoyed that shoot. Phillip was really the organizer of that and several other shoots and it was always at his range. I always enjoyed our lunches and will always regret missing the last one because I was in court across the state. He always talked about his family, never himself. I made it to one of the “boiling and bragging” events that he helped put on for charity. Also got to shoot with him and snake207 in a Grayguns class. We even bought and sold each other a gun or two over the years. He’s a great guy and I’m proud to call him a friend. Continued prayers for all.

I’m so sorry to hear of this. I read many of his posts and he will be missed. I don’t know what else to say. Sorry.
