Memories & Candles


Phillip and I were raised together for a few years outon arch st.pike.to me he was like a brother. I knew Jamie Sue and L.P and their mother and dad.Phillip and I played football for mabelvale, and a lot of times practice made us miss our bus and we would hitch-hike,(mostly hike) from the school to our homes out where the big bauxite pile was.And that is a whole new story.God bless the family, and I wish I could have gone to the funeral. I had just gotten a kidney transplant, and I did'nt know he had passed.

Regina and Family~

I am a better person to have known Phillip and you over the years, and am devastated at your loss. Phillip was one of the most level headed fellows I have met, and never got too excited despite what adverse circumstances happened along. He lived the way we should, and I never heard him once say a cross word about anyone, even if he could have and would have been justified in doing so. His love for you

I can't think of Budder with out remembering how he trimed trees. There was a huge tree in front of the house on Nova Lane. Budder trimmed that tree back, including the large limbs, untill I didn't think it would live. In a few years that tree became the most beautiful tree in sight. Then on a visit, to there home in Hensley, he showed me his improved way to trim trees. He used his Rifle to shot the limbs

Regina and Tonya:
People come in and out of our lives as we travel through this life. "Wolfe" was one of those people that are forever remembered for his love of friends. When we would see you after many years it was as if it was yesterday. Out of sight was never out of mind. We are praying that God will meet your every need at this most difficult time.
Love, Doug and Nancy

Regina, Tonya and family,

I am so sorry about Phillip. The last time that I saw you and Phillip was at Wayne's funeral and I was so happy to see you. We have all grown older together in many ways. The best way has been just being friends for all these years. My love and prayers go out to you and your family. I am here if you need me.
