Philip Rigby

Hi Deb and family Please accept my Deepest Sympathies for the loss of Phil. Unfortunetly I found out too late of his passing, or else I defintely would have been there. I had worked with Phil at Trim Trends. He was a great person to work with and of course a very Good Friend. Any time I was in Mount Forest, or anywhere else for that matter I would always have the feeling that I would run into Phil and he would always seem to show up. I will miss our "Short" chats. Friends for Life, Margy.

Dear Deb and Family. I was sorry to hear of Phil's death. May you take comfort that he is in heaven with the Lord. Hugs to you all. Ron and Christy Stephens

Dear Debbie and family we just learned about Phil''s passing today. Our prayers are with you, may The Lord give you strength in the days that lie ahead.

We were so saddened to hear that Philip has passed away. I will always cherish the good times we had together growing up. My Father too was very fond of Philip and they had many heartfelt talks. I am sure my Father greeted Philip with open arms and they are catching up with each other. I am sorry that I will not be able to attend the funeral because I had a medical emergency a few days ago and just got out of the hospital today. We hope that the wonderful memories will sustain you through this difficult time.

Dear Deb, Lori, Chris, & Mike. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers as you mourn your Husband, Father, and Grandpa. Phil was a great guy, who was always there to give a lending hand whenever we needed the help. I know Dad was always thankful for the help with blowing out the lane way, taking the garbage out, or just a little visit to pass the day away. I had the opportunity of going fishing with Phil this past summer, even though we didn't catch anything, we had an awesome night of reminiscing, and storytelling. Phil had a gentle spirit who loved to meet new people and share his faith. Heaven has gained another angel from the 10th Concession of Egremont.(Southgate), God Bless you all.

Dear Debbie and Family; Our most Sincere Sympathy to all of you. I will always remember my chats with Phil...he often didn't feel well, but would always try to find a way to make both of us smile. Bob didn't know him as well as I but also remembers his smile. He coped with his health issues as a brave man and you, Debbie were the love of his life and wonderful caregiver. He loved his grandchildren as he would often talk of them He is at peace, free from pain which may be of some comfort to you. May your happy memories and knowing so many care be of comfort to all of you. Due to us both having nasty colds, we will not attend the visitation or service for fear of spreading germs. Again, our Sincere Sympathy, Bob and Mary McIntee

Debbie, Laurie,James, Christopher and Michael Wishing you peace to bring comfort, courage to face the days ahead and loving memories to forever hold in your heart. Phil was a great man! I still talk about our adventures of years past and the great times we shared. Rest in peace buddy.

Dear Debbie: I was devastated to hear of Phil's passing. I will never forget how much he helped Mick when he was so sick. They would talk for hours on the phone and it would lift Mick's spirit. Phil was always so positive no matter how bad he felt....a kind and gentle soul. Sadly I won't be able to attend Phil's services as I am recovering from a health crisis myself and only a few days out of the hospital so my doctor has vetoed travel. I will be there in spirit though. I wish you strength and comfort at this difficult time.

So sorry for you loss Laurie and Deb. Our deepest sympathies at this difficult time.

Dear Deb, Lori & boys. Words do not come easy, Phil was always the same each and every day you would meet him. He was always smiling, happy and had a wonderful way of making your day better...always felt good after you had a chat with Phil Rigby. Such shock to us all. We did not know Phil was back into hospital and how wonderful he passed on His Saviours birthday. We will hold you close Deb & Lori...we will be praying for you to have strengh thru these days. I'm so so very sorry God Bless Judy & Bill

Dear Deb, Lori and family, We are saddened to hear of Phil's passing, he is very loved. Our thoughts and prayer are with you during this time.

Dear Deb, Lori and family, I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Phil. What a great guy I had the pleasure of getting to know over the past few years from living on the farm and being neighbours to running into Phil here and there around the town. He was always so loving and caring with a kind heart and soul. He would always ask about my family and how everyone was doing and what they were doing. He will be so missed by you and so many. What a wonderful person he was and when I think about Phil, I smile. God Bless you all! Linda

the world is too quiet without Phil he was a very nice man and fellow kayaker- he will be missed
