On Phil Hanna See also: Charles Philip Hanna, 72, Columbia, KY (1951-2024) From Mike Watson with Ernestine Bennett, Annita Dial A bright light was extinguished with the passing of our friend and colleague, Phil Hanna. Much can be said of Phil and his varied interests, multiple skills and talents, and his love of people and life in general. His life before Columbia and Adair County unfolded like an ancient document of world history. Phil's reminiscences of his life before coming to Lindsey Wilson were the makings of a best-seller. Compassion was his dominant trait and he was always the one who stood for the underdog, for the downtrodden, for those who were in need of help or just understanding. When Phil came to work at the Adair County Public Library in August of 2019, he was already retired and hoped to find a new niche in his adopted town and county. He was not a genealogist, or so he would say, but he did have a background in his own family research and soon became adept at finding ancestors for others. With the opening of the Genealogy & History Research Center in April of 2021, Phil became the front-line with visiting researchers. He was our technology expert. We came to rely on his expertise daily and visitors came with specific needs that Phil would then tackle with abandon. Our little group at the Research Center quickly became an assembled family. He was our glue in many instances, bringing us clarity when we needed guidance. Phil drew each of us into other aspects of his life, into groups that he enjoyed, introduced us to music and cinematic styles that were new and exciting. He delighted in discussing a new musical group he would encounter on the internet and send emails with links to what he thought we would enjoy. He was an influencer, if you will. He enjoyed coming to work. Enjoyed his time here. Enjoyed the visitors and researchers. He also worried about everyone and his compassion was immense. He leaves a tremendous hole in our lives. We loved him and shall miss him every day for a very long time. Peace in the hereafter, Friend. Prayers for those you left to mourn you. This story was posted on 2024-07-03 14:31:59
