Frank Phillips
July 29, 1924 — October 27, 2015
Frank E. Phillips, age 91, of Selma, passed away October 27, 2015.
He was preceded in death by his wife, Nell S. Phillips and his second wife, Rebeca Phillips. Frank was a lifelong resident of Selma and did not want to live anywhere else; actually, he refused to live anywhere else.
He is survived by his son: Daniel E. Phillips (Donna); son: John Steven Phillips (Nancy); daughter: Susan Phillips Meredith (Michael); 8 grandchildren: Foster Phillips (Janet), Matthew Phillips (Roberta), Hannah Phillips, Elizabeth Phillips, Brett Burnell (Erin), Allison LeCoq (Daniel); 8 great grandchildren: Foster Phillips, Oliver Phillips, Andrew Phillips, Walter Phillips, Russell Phillips, Margaret Burnell, Hallie Burnell.
There will be a funeral mass held at Queen of Peace Catholic Church at 10:00 a.m. Friday, October 30, 2015 followed by graveside services at 11:00 a.m. at the New Live Oak Cemetery with Fr. Richard Myhalyk officiating and Lawrence Brown-Service Funeral Home directing. Visitation will be held at Lawrence Brown-Service Funeral Home on Thursday from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.
Frank was a great father, happy grandfather, WWII veteran, proud patriot (member of Both the Veterans of Foreign Wars and the American Legion), a devout Catholic, a loyal Elk, serving as a longstanding member and past Exalted Ruler of B.P.O.E 167.
He was stubbornly independent, considerate of others, a Braves fan, and he always had a very sharp and quick wit which he displayed much to our delight and chagrin right until the end.
