Phillip Dale Hartmann, of San Antonio and Blanco, died early in the morning on December 23rd, losing his long battle with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Phil was born in San Antonio to Francis and Gertrude Weber Hartmann. While being raised in San Antonio, Phil was never far from his roots at the ranch in Kendall County. He graduated from Churchill High School and received his degree from Texas State University, then moved back to San Antonio to begin his worklife.
Phil was an underwriter who retired after a long career at USAA. He was the longstanding President of the Hermann Sons Lodge at Twin Sisters who valued his German heritage and loved hunting, fishing and showing visitors around the ranch on his Mule. Phil was a handsome man with a sunny disposition in spite of his health issues, a melodious voice, and always had an uplifting anecdote to bring laughter and smiles to anyone, anytime, anywhere. He will always be remembered as a talented man known for his playful and thoughtful poems on any occasion.
A lover of hats, Phil owned over a hundred, ranging from Stetsons to canvas ballcaps to wide brimmed straw hats. No one could TOP him on his wild assorted hat collection.
Phil is survived by his mother, Gertrude Hartmann; his sons, Nick and wife, Karen, Louis and wife, Sara; fiancée, Sherri Vee Thrailkill; brothers, Stephen and wife, Georgia, Guy and wife, Linda; sister, Laurie; grand- children: Sara, Katie and Jayce; nephews Edward and wife, Molly, John and wife, Shannon and Cale; nieces Shannon and husband, Giorgio Zambon, and Kristin and husband, Steve Keller; nine grandnieces and nephews.
