Phillip was born on May 12, 1940 to Charles Joseph Lore and Clara Alexander Lore in St. Louis, Missouri and passed away on Saturday, March 22, 2025 in Shreveport, Louisiana.

Philip joined the Marines in 1957 and was loyal to his country and during the 45th and 47th Presidential election he made sure to vote for the winner. He received a Good Conduct medal during his enlistment. He provided for his family for 35 years while working at AT&T as a cable technician and splicer. He enjoyed his job and made many lifelong friends while working there. He retired on Toledo Bend Lake in 1996 with his wife. He became an avid fisherman; where to some in the area he was known as “The Fish Whisperer.” He told the best fishing stories and always wanted family and friends to fish with him. He was a devoted LSU Tiger fan, and, on many occasions, he was unable to sleep after evening games. He lived life to the fullest, but his greatest love and accomplishment was his family. His biggest blessing was his 6 grandchildren and soon to be 6 great-grandchildren.

Phillip was preceded in death by his parents, Charles and Clara Lore and sisters, Linda Higgins and Joann Bell. He is survived by his wife of 61 years, Alice Lore of Many, Louisiana; son, Christopher Lore and wife, Kim, of Jasper, Arkansas; daughters, Sherrie Womack and husband, Mike, of Magnolia, Texas and Rebecca Cox of Elm Springs, Arkansas; sister, Brenda Rolfes of St. Louis, Missouri; brother, John Lore and wife, Jan, of St. Louis, Missouri; grandchildren, Casey Lore, Cristen Michael and husband, Lake, Ashleigh Gosnell and husband, Luke, Joshua Womack, Lacey Bettis, and Kinsey McFarland and husband, Michael; and great-grandchildren, Annabell Grace Bettis, A.J. Michael, Jax Michael, Levi Marshall Gosnell, Austyn Alice McFarland, and soon to be, Blakley Myshell McFarland.
