Mike, Beth, and Amy: Si sorry to hear about the passing f if your Dad. Your parents have a special place in my heart. They were my first employers as I worked at the famous Phillips Bakery. I remember your mom running the front of the shop and your Dad busy in the back making donuts and pies. Hope you find comfort in all the memories being shared now. Live to you all and your families.

Dear Family Members,
I first met Bud in 1979 at Oxford Airport. Although I did not own a plan I was befriended by Bud and a wonderful group of guys at the airport. Over the years Bud and I enjoyed many flights together. He was my friend. He was a good man and I will miss him very much. I read the newspaper late today and was so sorry to hear the news and miss the service. I would have been honored to be there.
God Bless You All...

Our thoughts are with all the Phillips family. Bud - you and your family have been very special to the Sherwood Family- Providing employment to several young Sherwood women - from Lee's sister, Brooke, to our own daughters, Meredith and Vicky- always making us feel we had a home away from home at your coffee counter. We recently have been so very touched to add the bond you have with our daughter a member of the the Marine Corps family. Our gratitude to you Bud, for your service, and for inspiring our daughter, Major "Vicky" - We have all been so very honored to have a member of the "Chosin Few" in our lives. - Semper Fidelis, Bud, OOH-RAH

I knew Bud and Madelyn also Janice and Audrey since the early 60's. I stopped in many a morning on my way to work for doughnuts. Got my lunch when I worked at Denominator next door. I saw Beth and Aimee in the diner a lot. Beth at the Dr. in Woodbury where my husband Tom went quite a bit. Everyone will miss "Bud".

I had the privilege of meeting Bud at the Oxford Airport, and he quickly became my friend. He was a very funny and feisty gentleman and he will be missed. I wish the family peace during this very sad time.

Always a smile on his face. When my husband and I were dating (long ago), I paid your father to take my then boyfriend on a plane ride over Woodbury/Bethlehem. It was his very first plane ride! We still talk of it today. He was a kind soul. So sorry for your loss.

Dear Aimee, Beth & Mike, I will always hold dear the memories of Uncle Bud and Aunt Madeline. I am so very fortunate to be a part of such a loving family. Even though we lived far apart, in my heart I always knew Uncle Bud was there. I will miss him dearly. Jimmy

Cleared for takeoff on runway 1... Destination, heavenly bounds.
Isaiah 40: 30-32
Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall;
but those who hope in the Lord
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.
Uncle Bud was a great guy with a wonderful sense of humor. I don't believe he ever met a stranger. We are very thankful we got to see him one last time back in February. Our thoughts and prayers are with you Michael, Beth, Aimee and your families. God bless you all!
