Philip Clifton Good
March 18th, 1947 - September 27th, 2019
March 18th, 1947 - September 27th, 2019
Philip C Good, 72, of Plymouth, Michigan, succumbed to Cancer and Parkinson’s at the comfort of his own home surrounded by his family on September 27th, 2019. Born March 18, 1947, in Garden City, Michigan, he was the son of the late Lawrence Good and Joan (Brown) Good.
Philip recently celebrated 50 years of marriage this August 23rd to his beautiful wife, Vicki. Philip was a supportive and loving father to his three girls and six grandchildren. He was always there to coach soccer and tennis to his loved ones. He also impacted countless kids in the community by managing numerous youth sports teams, helping grow their love for the sport and fair play. Philip was also involved at the Northbrook Presbyterian Church community during his time living in Bloomfield. In addition to spending quality time with his family, he was an engineer working for Detroit Diesel for over 30 years. Philip had a sharp mind and kind heart.
Philip is survived by his wife Vicki and daughters Heather (Rory) Pawl, Sarah (Paul) LaTarte, and April (Garth) Bungard, and many adoring grandchildren: Ruby, Hudson, Bram, Grant, Elliston, and Sabine. In addition to being a loving father and papa, he is survived by his siblings: Barbara (Charles) Simmons, Richard (Shirley) Good, and Lawrence (Cathy) Good, and many nieces and nephews.
A special thank you to the people at Henry Ford Hospice in Detroit, Michigan for their loving care and support during his final days. A celebration of life gathering will be held for immediate family at a later date.

"Like as the waves make towards the pebbled shore, So do minutes hasten to their end;" A sonnet from Shakespeare in hopes that his words will be remembered long beyond death. This makes me think of my Dad's legacy and how I will remember him. How will I remember my dad? I will remember him within all of his favorite things. My dad's most cherished and favorite thing was his family. He built a strong family with my mom, his wife of 50 years. His pride and joy was being the patriarch of his family. He lead by example, with few words, but when he spoke it resinated. My dad built the foundation of our family by showing loyalty, patience, kindness and strength. I will forever be grateful to have him as my dad, the patriarch of our family and I will move forward honoring what he built, live his virtues and I will remember him through every one of his favorite things. Just going to name a few of his favorite things and please feel free to remind me of some of his other favorite things and how he made a mark in your life. Dad's favorite things.... Chocolate chip cookies, cherry pie with crumble crust, Corvettes, duct tape (it fixes everything), coaching soccer, playing tennis, watching sports including the Detroit Tigers, clip boards, books and shows about history, anything to do with his grand children. I love you dad and I will always remember you and the legacy you left.
