“Duck Commander” Phil Robertson Died On May 25 At The Age Of 79
Phil Robertson, patriarch of the Robertson family, is being remembered with heartfelt tributes from those who loved him.
Phil, who founded the company Duck Commander, rose to fame on the A&E show Duck Dynasty. The show followed him and his large family, showcasing how they ran their business.
But even more so, the show shared the family’s love for each other and their Christian faith.
Duck Dynasty ended in 2017. After the show ended, Phil and his family continued speaking about their faith on podcasts, social media, and other projects.
However, Phil stepped back from his Unashamed podcast at the end of 2024. His sons, Al and Jase, revealed in December that Phil had been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease and a blood disease.
The Robertsons kept fans updated on Phil’s health as the months passed. In the May 19 episode of Unashamed, Al and Jase said they felt like their dad was “getting ready for the journey to the other side.”

Sadly, Phil made that journey on Sunday, May 25. The Robertson family announced he had passed away earlier that day.
The family’s statement read in part:
“Thank you for the love and prayers of so many whose lives have been impacted by his life saved by grace, his bold faith, and by his desire to tell everyone who would listen the Good News of Jesus. We are grateful for his life on earth and will continue the legacy of love for God and love for others until we see him again.”
