Philip N. Wilcox left his beloved mountains on Jan. 24, 2020. He faced his final illness with the same grace and quiet courage with which he lived his entire life, surrounded by his family and in the home that he built with his own hands.

Philip was born in Waterbury, Conn., on Feb. 2, 1941, to Nelson R. and Harriet F. (Watrous) Wilcox. He attended Waterbury and Southington public schools and H.C. Wilcox Technical School in Meriden, Conn.
