Phillip "Flip" G. Mulder, 82, passed into the arms of his Savior, Jesus Christ on February 19, 2015 in Muskogee, Oklahoma. His service will be at 10:30 a.m. Wednesday, February 25, 2015 at Countryside Baptist Church in Stillwater. Strode Funeral Home is in charge of arrangements.
He was born on June 10, 1932 to George and Rose (Keaton) Mulder in Grand Rapids, Michigan. He was married to Mary (Saliba) Mulder for 58 years before her passing in 2010 and remarried Linda (Adams) Mulder four months later. He felt especially blessed to have found two loving and caring spouses during his life and loved them both dearly.
Phillip was a veteran of the Air Force, originally in the Army Air Corps which he joined at the age of 17. Shortly after joining the service, he was sent to the Korean War. While in Korea, he was considered Air Force Infantry and during his time there received the Korean and American Presidential Medals, a bronze star and a purple heart when he was wounded.
He is preceded in death by his first wife, Mary and his granddaughter, Elizabeth (Mulder) Ives.
He is survived by his wife, Linda; two children, Phillip Mulder, Jr. and his wife Lori and Rosemary (Mulder) Greene and her husband George. He is also survived by his step-children, Bucky Adams and Larinda (Adams) Takieddin; four grandsons and their wives, Adam (Tara) Mulder, Daniel (Kira) Mulder, Donald (Becky) Greene and Stephen Greene. He had nine great-grandchildren with another on the way and one great-great grandchild.
He and his immediate family traveled the world while in the Air Force and considered himself a rolling stone that gathered no moss. His zest for life was contagious and he spread it liberally to everyone that would listen and loved life and believed in living it to the fullest. He will be missed and remembered always.
