Calvin And Pamela Phillips

Cal was my best friend from 8th grade through High School. We worked together, played together and laughed together. He was Best Man at my wedding. As he went off to Army Training, Cal asked my wife and I to keep and eye on Pam while he was away, and to help her out when she needed. Pam was new to Michigan/Lansing, and wasn't always comfortable having to go get her groceries alone. I was honored to have helped them. The World has lost a wonderful couple. God bless them both.

I was blessed beyond words to know and spend time with both Cal and Pam. Cal could make me laugh so hard that I could barely breathe! Pam was the calm that complemented Cal's larger than life hilarity. They were meant for each other. May all of us, especially their family, take great comfort in the fact that they are in a place called heaven! Which simply means that they have never been more ALIVE than they are right now!! I look forward to seeing them again. :)

Cal Phillips was one of the greatest men I have ever known. I served with him in Desert Shield / Desert Storm. I was truly blessed to have him as a leader and mentor. He was such a dynamic person. The things I learned from him have served me well in my life. I thank him for being my friend throughout the years. I am a better man for having known him. I will miss him daily. I never met Pam, but felt that I knew her through the stories that Cal shared with me. He loved his family so very much....

Matthew, you know we're here for you and we'll see you and your family this weekend. To all, wit: Cal and Pamela Phillips were my best friends. After 36 some-odd years; our kids grew up together in Clarksville. Cal and I attended APSU, ROTC, and afterwards the Army. and life. People that knew Cal never saw much emotion from him, but I'll tell you I've seen the Man weep and it was ALWAYS for his Family and closet Friends. There is nothing Cal nor Pam would do for their friends and...

So very saddened to hear this news. Pam was always smiling and a very kind person. The world and the Class of 76 have lost a treasure! My deepest condolences to the Phillips family.

Dearest Matt, My thoughts and prayers are with you. Please let me know if I can help in any way. Liz

My condolences to Matt and your family. May God co tinue to strengthen you in this hour of sorrow words cannot explain how sad it is to read of this tragedy. I don't know your pain but I pray that God 's comfort be with you. We have never met but I just wanted you to know that my prayers are with you and your family.

I knew Calvin from the Church our families both attended through our Jr. High and High school days. He was my partner and co-conspirator in many teen fuled adventures as well as a wonderful friend. While I did not have the pleasure of knowing him much as an adult, I will always treasure the memories of our time as kids and young men. He was always warm, kind, fun loving, easy to laugh and dedicated to his family and friends. My heart goes out to his parents and sister as well as the family of...
