Philip B Giddings

Philip Brian Giddings was born January 14, 1982 at Elmendorf AFB Hospital in Anchorage, Alaska to Bruce Giddings and Linda (Booth) Thomas. He was the eldest of his siblings. Phil was a very caring soul that enjoyed all the people that came into his life and he left his mark on all of theirs. He was always there whenever anyone needed him and was the first to offer help if anyone needed it, and was very selfless. He loved cooking and gaming with his friends and family, and made some of the best friends doing these. Phil was a Techie at heart and loved computers and technology. He was a very sought after employee at Staples in the Easy Tech Department. Phil was a larger than life Viking Teddy Bear that was all about the bearded life.

They reconnected again in December 2015 and officially began their Love Story on January 10, 2016. He entered into a family with a single Mom who had three children. Phil was a great blessing when he came into their lives and made their lives good. A year later on Valentine’s Day 2017 a fourth child entered their lives and became the light of his life. His little Shield Maiden became the center of his universe and he hers. On February 29, 2020 he popped the question and Stephanie said yes. They were planning a late Spring Wedding for this year.
