He is survived by his children, Lori Phillips, Julie Phillips, Monica and Matt Hampson; grandchilddren, Morgan and Milo Hampson; brother, John Robert Phillips.

To the family of Captain Mike Phillips, I extend my heartfelt sympathy on his loss. As a Northwest Flight Attendant, I had the opportunity to serve as part of his crew many times, and it was always a pleasure to do so. He was one of my most favorite pilots, and I knew I was always safe with him as our leader. He had a mind like a steel-trap, never forgetting any previous encounters or trips we would share. And, his dry wit was delightfully appreciated and invoked much laughter from his crews. God speed Mike... Soar with the angels.
