Philip E. Lawler, age 72 of Wayne died on Tuesday, December 20, 2011.
Phil was born in Wilkes-Barre, PA, and had been an accountant in New York City before starting his own accounting practice, “Philip Lawler, P.A.” more than forty years ago. He moved his practice to Wayne thirty years ago.
In 1981, he married Dorothy (nee Anderson) and they moved to Wayne. They have enjoyed a loving marriage of thirty years. Phil was just as devoted to Dorothy as he was to his step-daughter Jennifer, who needed special attention. Phil raised her and helped care for Jennifer many years, and they enjoyed a very special relationship as a result. To all that knew him, Phil was a charming and funny story teller, quick-witted, and very entertaining. Everyone genuinely liked him and he will be missed by all.
Phil is survived by his loving wife, Dorothy, his four step-children; Daniel, Kathleen, Laura, and Jennifer, as well as six grandchildren.
Those planning an expression of sympathy in Phil’s name are asked to consider the Wayne Memorial First Aid Squad, P.O. Box 291, Wayne, NJ 07474. The Squad was not only helpful to Phil in recent years, but they were always willing help with transporting Jennifer whenever necessary. Phil’s family is indebted to them and donations in Phil’s memory would be greatly appreciated.
