Phillip Lee Erdes, age 91, of Port St. Lucie, FL (formerly of Turtle Lake, WI), passed away on September 8, 2026. He was preceded in death by his wife, Jane; his children, Mary Jane, Cyndi, and Jeffrey; and his parents, Frank Erdes and Doris Barthel. Phil is survived by his brother, Bill (Nancy); his sister, Barbara; his children, Susan (Doug), Tom (Laurie), and Nancy (Kevin); and many beloved grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He also leaves behind his dear friends, Eve and Sharon, to whom the family extends a special thank you. Phil had a personality that was larger than life. He loved the outdoors, whether he was hunting, fishing, or simply sitting in his chair by the lake. He lived a full life and spent it surrounded by those he loved most. A celebration of life will be held in spring with details to come. The family welcomes you to post pictures and share stories about their beloved father, grandfather, brother, and friend, Phil.
