April 8, 1936 — April 28, 2015
Philip Marvin Haugen was born on April 8, 1936 in Starbuck, MN, the son of Palmer and Florence (Lachlet) Haugen. He grew up in the Starbuck area and graduated from Glenwood High School. Philip met Audrey Bowen, “the love of his life” at a dance in Morris, MN at the Morris Ball Room January 27, 1954. They were united in marriage on January 13, 1955 in Brooten, MN and made their home in Glenwood, MN. Together they had six children Kerry, Denise, Jamie, Lori, Melanie, and Mark.
Philip served in the Minnesota National Guard during the Korean War. After his time serving in the Guard he began working for Metz Bakery. Philip delivered product to stores for 41 years until he retired in 1998
Philip liked to take fishing trips to Canada and he also liked to go hunting. He loved animals and raised horses, cats, goats and dogs. Later in life Philip enjoyed watching the wildlife and took many photos of animals he saw on his land. “Spring” was Philips favorite time of year. As he drove across the countryside he liked watching the fields come alive with the crops that had been planted. Philip loved his family, especially his grandchildren and made every one of them feel special when they visited. He will be missed by those who knew and loved him.
