Philip Thibault

July 5, 1944 — June 6, 2019

Dr. Philip S. Thibault, 74, of Charlotte, went home to be with his Lord, Thursday, June 6, 2019.

Philip was born July 5, 1944 in Chicopee Falls, Massachusetts, to Albert and Muriel Thibault.  In addition to his father, Philip was also preceded in death by grandsons, Philip Thomas Kokubun and Norman Daniel Kokubun.

Philip gave his life to the Lord to serve his wife, his family, and Christian Education.  He served faithfully as a principal in five schools, impacting thousands of lives.  He was a man of integrity, who lived by this quote, "Your character is who you are when no one is around."  Philip will be greatly missed by all those who loved him, but we rejoice for the hope that is in Christ.
