Granddaughter Sadie Robertson Huff also honored her grandfather on Instagram, sharing a series of family photos that spanned the years of their rise to fame.
Willie Robertson, Phil’s son, and his wife Korie offered their tribute in a joint Instagram statement, saying, “We celebrate today that our father, husband, and grandfather, Phil Robertson, is now with the Lord.
Thank you for the love and prayers of so many whose lives have been impacted by his life.” The family also noted that while a private service is being held, plans for a public celebration of life will be announced soon.
Phil Robertson’s health had declined significantly in recent months. On an April episode of the family’s podcast, Jase told listeners, “We’re making him comfortable, and we’re doing the best we can.
I think that’s just what you do.”
