It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of our co-founder, Phillip (Phil) Yurgae.

In 1975, Phil, along with Fred Mueller, founded Mueller Yurgae Associates with a vision built on relationships, integrity, and service. Over the next five decades, Phil helped grow MYA into the company it is today, touching the lives of countless employees, clients, customers, and industry partners along the way.

Phil was more than a founder. He was a mentor, leader, and friend. He genuinely cared about helping others succeed and took tremendous pride in the people he worked alongside throughout his career. His leadership, dedication, and commitment left a lasting impact on our company and throughout the industry.

In recognition of his many contributions, Phil was honored with the Iowa Grocery Industry Association (IGIA) Lifetime Achievement Award in 2012. We invite you to take a moment to watch this tribute video celebrating his remarkable career and the many lives he touched: https://youtu.be/0jLLL-53UcI?si=psVsaGHsp94AI62X

As we remember Phil, we extend our deepest condolences to his family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing him. We are grateful for the foundation he built, the values he instilled, and the example he set.

Thank you, Phil, for everything you gave to MYA and the people around you.
