Phillip's obituary

Phillip J. Craggs, of Bradenton, Florida, passed away on July 27, 2025, at the age of 93. He was born on January 15, 1932, in Melbourne, Florida.

Phil was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Sue Craggs, and three daughters. He is survived by two daughters, Julie Kaye and Nikki Craggs of Bradenton. He also leaves behind three grandsons, four granddaughters, thirteen great-grandchildren, and many extended family members in Michigan.

A proud veteran, Phil honorably served in the United States Armed Forces from 1949 to 1955, including service during the Korean War. He enjoyed playing his harmonica and was well known in his community for performing Taps each Memorial Day, a tradition that drew friends and neighbors together in remembrance. Phil also loved to sit on his front porch with his sketchbook, capturing life through his drawings.

He will be deeply missed for his humor, wisdom, and kind spirit. Phil lived a long, full life and is now reunited with his loved ones in Heaven.
