    [post_content] => Philip Francis Bazier, aged 77, passed away on November 6, 2023, in San Diego, California, leaving behind a legacy woven with love, service, and faith.

Born on July 7, 1946, at McKeesport Hospital in McKeesport, Pennsylvania, to the late Charles Edward Bazier and Virginia Harriett Thomas Bazier, Philip embarked on a life journey filled with dedication and service. He graduated from Elizabeth Forward High School in 1965, before answering the call to serve in the US Army. Following his service, he joined K-Mart Department Stores, contributing his skills in Shipping and Receiving, while also pursuing his passion for art at the Pittsburgh Art Institute.

Settling in San Diego over 50 years ago, Philip found his place in the community. His dedication to service led him to the Department of Veterans Affairs, where he diligently served for two decades in the Department of Environmental Service until his retirement.

Philip's devotion extended beyond his professional life; he was an integral part of the Southeast Community Church (PCUSA) in San Diego. A cherished member, he contributed as a church Elder, participating in the choir and representing the church at the Presbytery of San Diego meetings. His commitment to faith and service also shone through his involvement as thirty-third degree Mason and the Most Worshipful Grand Secretary with the M.W. John G. Jones G.L. of California A.F. and A.M. of the Western Masonic Jurisdiction, where he forged lifelong connections. He was also a Patron of Umoja Chapter Number 9, Grand Patron of Garden of Eden, and Grand Chapter of the OES State of California, where he served faithfully.

His passion for art, family, and model trains was matched only by his profound love for the Lord. Philip's humility and kindness touched countless lives. 

He was preceded in death by his parents; Virginia and Charles Bazier, his brother John Bazier, niece Denise George, and brother-in-law Donald George. 

He is survived by his sister Maryellen George, brother Charles T. Bazier Sr., nieces; Regina George, Donna George, Odessa Upchurch (Terry), and Angela Short (Justin), nephew Charles T. Bazier Jr., and a host of great-nieces, great-nephews, and extended family, all of whom he cherished deeply. 

Philip Bazier, known affectionately as "Everyone's Favorite Uncle," leaves behind a void felt by all who knew him. His unwavering faith and kindness guided his actions, leaving an indelible mark on the lives he touched. Though his earthly presence is no more, his spirit lives on in the hearts of those he inspired. May the grace of God embrace Philip Bazier until the day we reunite in the spirit of Christ Jesus. His earthly journey may have ended, but his spirit continues to shine brightly. Well done faithful servant.
