Phillip Lloyd Freitas May 2, 1937 - June 11, 2019 With heavy hearts we report the passing of Phillip Lloyd Freitas, at the age of 82, on the 11th of June, 2019. Phil was born the 2nd of May, 1937 in Delta, Colorado to Albert and Lucille Freitas and made the Western Slope his lifelong home. Perhaps best known as the long time proprietor of Quincy Tavern, over the course of his life Phil wore many hats: curator of Redstone Manor, founder of the Plaque Shack, professional actor, chef, uranium miner, and volunteer driver for Meals on Wheels. Phil was always happiest when exploring the world with his intrepid traveling companions, Carolyn and Hobbes, and when performing in the theater. As he was enthusiastically fond of saying, he played every stage in town. Phil is survived by his true love and life mate, Carolyn Santy; son, Morgan Freitas; nephew and niece, Warren Bacus, and Trudy Passehl, and descendants, as well as many dear friends who are family at heart. Memorial services will be held at 11:00 a.m., Tuesday, June 18, at Brown’s Funeral Chapel. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Mesa County Meals on Wheels.
