Such a nice guy (nicer than his sister, my mom, and she new it...hahahaha). I wish we could have lived closer and done more together. I am proud to call him uncle.
Linda and family,
What great memories we have of Phil and your family from your church days in Nevada. He was a blessing to the church, the school and the music students, and the community. His was a life well-lived and we are blessed that we could share that journey. The Henry family
Linda and family,
I can't begin to recount all the memories I have of Mr. Fauquet. He was a teacher and mentor to me, and a friend to our entire family. He expected much from me and always pushed me to achieve more. I'm deeply grateful for the impact he had on my life, and it was this type of impact from him and others that led me to become a teacher myself. I thought about him often and always hoped for a chance to reconnect. My sympathies to all of you.
When I was a kid, Mr. Fauquet pushed me to play in band even though I am deaf, will forever be grateful for him teaching me how to play the drums and saxophone!
Linda and family-
I am so sorry for your loss. I have many fond memories of my years as a student of Mr. Fauquet. Linda - do you recall playing the piano accompaniment for my saxophone solo for contest? He will be missed by many.

Linda and family, I was so sorry to hear of Phil’s passing. Please know I will be thinking of you and praying for comfort for you and your family. This is a difficult time, but take comfort in knowing he is celebrating with Jesus (and my mom). Love, Chris Tanner Steege (Verne’s oldest daughter)
Linda and family,
We are so sorry to hear of Phil's death. But he has now moved on to his new life!
We appreciated the start Phil gave both of our girls in instrumental music. It has served them both SO well! And my first year in the Nevada district was sharing space with Phil in the basement of the old Milford building. That is where I really got to know him, and we laughed and talked every day. He will be missed by so many, but with fond memories.
Thanks for sharing him with our family.

What a guy!!! I had lots of fun with Phil for a few years there and have thought of him often after our move to Arizona.... I enjoyed his spirit and his enthusiasm for choir and sometimes for golf when it was going well. we had lots of deep discussions after golf etc.... still miss him cheers Jim Thomas
Our sympathy to Phil's family. Our children were students of his in middle school and he got them off to a good start. We also remember playing along with him in community band for several summers. Especially we remember his corny jokes. He will be missed by all who knew him.
