Phil Harris Tribute Wallpaper

As Josh and Jake want us all to know, Phil will always consider his fans part of the Harris and Cornelia Marie families. With this enduring bond, we sent out an invite to our Facebook friends to pay tribute to our beloved skipper with their own personal HAIKU's. Not an easy assignment for many, but here are wonderful poetic tributes sent in by fans who were up to the task.

Grizzled tough outside; A tender heart within him; Captain, Father, Friend

Burly beard has he
Duck farts were drank steadily
No crab left behind

Waves higher than boats.
Fishing crew works with the sea,
Man accepts nature.

Gone yet not forgotten,
Although we are apart,
Your spirit lives within me,
Forever in my heart.

Red sky at morning
Ice plummets like sharp daggers
Sailor take warning
Written by Trisha Ann Wheatley

I wrote your name in the sand,
but the waves washed it away.
I wrote your name in the sky, ...
but the wind blew it away.
So I wrote your name in my heart,
and that's where it will stay, always
Written by Patty Fuhr

Salty SOB; Larger than life on the sea; Last trip Phil Godspeed.

The breath of the winds
Sunny days and starry nights
Good to be alive.

Salt air in his wings
pots filled, and deckhands sleeping
He'll watch over you.

His legacy will live on.
Waves hold memories.

Real truth is quite gruff
Fishing gives life to gruff men
gruff men have soft hearts

Eyes blue and piercing / Voice rough and somtimes raspy / Heart..big as the Bering Sea

to capt. phil,
sparks fly, smoke emerges,
crabs die,
boat anchors,
crew cries,...
seas rest, journey ends...life goes on...RIP

Deadly seas your life
Two sons and crab filled your heart
Tattoed on our souls
Written by Emily Heinlen

The seas will be quite without his jokes and laughter,
In the voice of the screeching gulls, listen for his name.
Look to the skys, for the light beaming through the clouds,
For every day this tribute to him will remain.
Written by Sharon Estes Raymond-diaz

Bering Sea lifeblood
Taken too soon; but comfort.
The soul has now joined...
