My dad passed away on October 4th in Spokane, Washington. Here are the pictures from the funeral.

Here's the obituary that ran in the paper (with a few minor corrections):


SCOTT, Phillip John
Passed away October 4, 2007 from complications of leukemia. He was born July 4, 1941 at his grandparents' house in Annis, Idaho. Most of his adult life was spent working for LDS Family Services, a private social service agency. His work was very respected by many. After a brief early marriage, he married Julie Ann Stoddard on March 12, 1966. They were sealed in the Salt Lake City Temple on May 11, 1967. Phillip was a life-long member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and was a very faithful servant until the end. He was also a dedicated and loving husband and father. He and Julie were married for 41 years and had eight children: Andrew, Nathan, Jonathan, Amy, James, Matthew, Ryan and David. He also had two children by his previous marriage, Cindy and Phillip Jr. He is survived by 32 grandchildren. He will be sorely missed by his children and all who knew him. He has gone on to a glorious place to continue serving his Savior and rejoin his parents and loved ones. Those of us left behind will sorrow at his passing but take joy in his memory.
