Phillip “Phil” Jolette, 68, passed away on September 21, 2026, following nearly 10 years of living with Parkinson’s disease. He was born on April 27, 1958, to Gerald and Taimi Jolette, who preceded him in death.

Phil is survived by his sisters, Katherine (David) Paulsen and Susan Jolette; his brother, Paul Jolette; his niece, Nicole Gombosi; his nephew, Scott Paulsen; and their beloved families.

Phil was a good-natured man with a wonderful sense of humor who made lasting friendships throughout his life. He enjoyed playing foosball, where his talent earned him tournament victories and a reputation as a skilled player. He also loved golf, and when he wasn’t out on the course, he enjoyed watching the game on television.

For many years, Phil worked in the press department at Corona Graphics. Despite the challenges of Parkinson’s disease, he continued to seek ways to maintain his strength and mobility. He participated in Rock Steady Boxing, a program designed for individuals living with Parkinson’s disease. Phil appreciated the encouragement and support of his instructors, whose training helped him preserve his strength and movement.

Phil will be remembered for his kind nature, his humor, and the light he brought into the lives of those who knew and loved him. He will be missed terribly by his family and friends.

Rest in peace, dear brother. You will always be remembered and forever loved.
