Today on Backroads, we visit the grave of Phil Robertson, the legendary founder of Duck Commander and the unforgettable patriarch of Duck Dynasty.
With Duck Dynasty: The Revival bringing the Robertson family back into the spotlight, we look back at the life, faith, family, and final resting place of Phil Robertson, the original Duck Commander.
Phil Robertson’s life was more than fame, duck calls, television, and the Robertson family empire. His story began in Louisiana, where he grew up poor, learned to hunt and fish, played football, became a teacher, built Duck Commander, and eventually became one of the most recognizable faces in reality television.
But behind the beard, the fame, and the famous “happy, happy, happy” spirit was a man whose life was shaped by faith, family, mistakes, redemption, controversy, and a message he never stopped sharing.
In this video, we look back at the life of Phil Robertson, his rise with Duck Commander and Duck Dynasty, his final years, his battle with Alzheimer’s, and the legacy he left behind for Miss Kay, Willie, Jase, Si, Sadie, the Robertson family, and millions of fans around the world.
Join us as we visit Phil Robertson’s grave and remember the man known to many as The Duck Commander.
You never know what you will find on the backroads.
