Just found out about Phil’s passing Condolences to the family He truly was a wonderful man I’ve missed him so much through the years❤️
I was just thinking of reaching out to Phil and was in the process of searching the internet for his address in Cobourg. I came across his obituary. To his family, my heartfelt condolences. Phil and I worked together at the Ministry of Transportation for several years. He had a wonderful sense of humor and we had a lot of fun back in the day. We also helped each other from time to time at work. He was full of life and very social. I am sorry I waited too long to reach out. Cherish the memories as will I. Dan Paul

Sorry for your loss. We had some great times dragon boating with Phil. He was always an eager participant, willing to undertake whatever role was needed (hernia or not!)- recall the "worlds" in August of 2006. We will surely remember him. Vern Chase, Pat Stapley Chase

Our most sincere condolences to the family and friends of the remarkable Phil Mabey. Dave and I were among the many who were lucky to have spent time with Phil during our Dragon Boating years. In fact, Phil and I were part of the very first community team, the Wave Runners and occupied seat number 10 together for the first 10 years. We would laugh at trying to squeeze into that 24" space and swore that we had to be surgically separated by the end of each season. So many laughs and great times that we shared will always be dear to my heart. We are certainly blessed to have had Phil in our lives. Paddles UP!! - Dave Burnham and Carol Currelly-Burnham
