Charles Phillip "Phil" Yanchulis, 72, of Fredericksburg, beloved husband, father and
"Grandad," died peacefully Jan. 6, 2013, at Mary Washington Hospital in Fredericksburg.
Born June 28, 1940, in Washington, D.C., Phil was a graduate of Gonzaga College High
School (1958) and always expressed his admiration for the Jesuits and the lessons they
shared with their students. He was a dedicated family man and worker who spent his
working career with the U.S. Postal Service, retiring as a Supervisor. In retirement, he
worked at The Pool Company in Fredericksburg, where he relocated in 1993.
Phil and his wife, Nita, raised their four children in Clinton, Md., where they were active
members of St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church. He enjoyed sports, whether as a
player, coach or spectator, and learned his love of sports from his father, a decorated
college football player and renowned referee. He imparted this love to his four sons, and he
was never prouder than when watching them compete.
Phil is survived by his loving wife of 52 years, Nita Rosinski Yanchulis, of Fredericksburg;
sons and daughters-in-law: Phillip J. and Julie G. of Herndon, Michael P. and Colleen
O'Neill of Arnold, Md., Jon A. and Mary F. of King George, and Charles D. and Lisa A. of
Saint Inigoes, Md.; 12 grandchildren whom he adored: Kate, Jeanne Marie, Kelly, Bryan,
Molly, Jimmy, Meghan, Maggie, Lauren, Elizabeth, Charlotte and Peter; sister-in-law,
Patricia Rosinski; and numerous nieces and nephews.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Joseph and Marian Yanchulis; his sister, Joann
Yanchulis O'Connor; brothers-in-law, James J. O'Connor and Paul M. Rosinski; and
sister-in-law, Dorothy M. Rosinski.
