LIFE TRIBUTE – Wilferd Eureka Phifer

Wilferd Eureka Phifer

1931-2024


Bill lived the most adventurous life. He was an exceptional athlete, a dedicated dentist, and a beloved husband, father, and friend. He excelled in water/snow skiing, golf, bowling, billiards, swimming, and motorbikes. He played a mean game of gin rummy! He was a phenomenal dentist for nearly 50 years, instrumental in Knoxville fluoridation, and was everyone’s family dentist!


He was preceded by his mother Faye, and survived by his loving wife Cheryl, and 28 children, grandchildren and great grandchildren: Steve, Julie, Suzanne, Björn, Andreas, Tobias, Natalie, Mark, Jennifer, Cody, Audrey, Ophelia, Jacek, Justin Brianna, Michael, Justin, Munroe, Julie, Jordan, Kaden, Janine, Stephen, Parker, Wesley, Steve, Melanie, Èloïse and Jeff. He now rests in the arms of Jesus!
