Philip D. Bresse

Philip D. Bresse, 78 of Lincoln, New Hampshire, passed away on August 31, 2025, after a short illness. Phil will forever remain in the hearts of those touched by his presence in their lives.

Phil was born in Westfield, MA on July 28, 1947. He was a former Brockton Massachusetts resident who preferred living in the spacious and beautiful mountain regions of New Hampshire. Phil severed in the US Army from May of 1967 to May of 1969 doing one tour of duty in Vietnam. He was a painter by trade, but also enjoyed making chain saw sculptures and furniture out of trees and stumps. Phil found solace and meaning in his work, hobbies, and friends. He also found humor in everything that he observed and was a master at delivering witty punch lines when least expected.

Phil is survived by his three brothers, Arthur Bresse of Virginia, David and wife Denise (Hibbard) Bresse of Middleboro, MA, and Michael Bresse of Parrish, FL; a sister, Donna Bresse of Ocala, FL; along with nieces and nephews, Katrina, Brian, Kevin, Kelley, Erin and Seth.
