lukewarm Christian by any means. He turned his life around totally and completely, and he now uses the gifts and talents God gave him for God’s purposes rather than for his own selfish desires.
Now, with their most difficult years far behind them, Phil and Miss Kay show love continuously. They are playful with each other and laugh together all the time. They have weathered a lot of storms in their life together and are being rewarded for their faithfulness with a great marriage. It’s so exciting for us to watch this couple who have been together for nearly fifty years continue to grow in their love for each other.
At any point either one of them could have given up. Had they done that, the rest of us would not be here today. People would not be watching our family on television, and lots of lives would have never been touched—not by us, at least. I know God is raising up others to do His work and touch many people, but I am proud that for this moment, for this time, He is using our family, and we willnot take that for granted. We are grateful for the difficult choices Phil and Miss Kay made so we could all enjoy the close family and the good lives we have now.

Miss Kay and Phil know the pain I caused their son (more about that later), and they still chose to support us as a couple and chose to love and care for me. They have helped Alan and me in every way they possibly could through the years, whether that involved babysitting (Kay was the babysitter; Phil was the one who got credit for it on Duck Dynasty ), financial support, or sharing their wisdom with us. Alan played an important role in the Duck Commander business during its early years, and they give him a lot of credit for that. This makes me proud for him and proud of him.
Miss Kay has always done a lot around the house for Phil. She has such a giving heart and is a natural caretaker, so she keeps an eye out for anything he needs or wants, and she accommodates him whenever possible. She is not one to grumble or complain about anything. She is a model of commitment, as everyone knows. She likes to bless other people, starting with Phil.
Miss Kay is also respectful by nature. The respect with which she treats Phil made a deep impression on me when I first got to know them and continues to impress me today. One simple wayMiss Kay demonstrates respect for Phil is to keep in touch with him if she changes her plans throughout the day. She respects the fact that he needs to know where she is in case he should need to reach her for some really important reason (like asking her to stop at the store to pick up snuff). Especially if her schedule changes or if she is running late, she gives him a quick call and keeps him up-to-date on where she is. That’s the kind of communication that keeps a relationship running smoothly. On top of all the good things Miss Kay does for Phil, she is totally, completely head over heels in love with him, as he is with her!
I know that Christ lives in Miss Kay and Phil, and they pattern their lives after His teachings. They truly practice what they preach. Together, they impact a lot of people in the most positive ways. Phil has a straightforward, up-front personality, while Miss Kay is understanding and comforting. That’s a great combination. When the two of them counsel people who need help or guidance, especially couples who are struggling in their marriages, the people they help leave believing they can conquer the world together.
