Philip, age 74 entered into eternal rest on Thursday, 29 AUG 13. He was a lifelong resident of Corona born to the late Crispin and Eleanor Rivera. Philip proudly served his country in the United State Air Force from 1956-1958. He leaves behind many family members and friends who will miss him dearly.
