Phillip McCrimon Obituary

Mr. Phillip Corneil McCrimon was born on May 10th, 1974 to the late Willie Mae McCrimon. He was lovingly raised in Harpersville, Alabama by his sister Nellie Ree McCrimon after the passing of his mother. The youngest of nine, Phillip was laid back, meek, humble, and had to be fresh at all times. He confessed Christ as his Lord and Savior at a young age, and was baptized and joined Baker's Grove Baptist Church. He attended Vincent Middle | High School where he laid the foundation for a lifetime of service and achievements. He made his mark as the 1992 track captain and a standout on the basketball court. For over a decade, Phillip was a faithful employee with Honda Manufacturing of Alabama, where he was known for his strong work ethic and steady reliable spirit. He was a true Alabama Crimson Tide fan. Gamedays were serious, and he cheered like it mattered every time. Phillip's jokes, smile and love for his people made him unforgettable. He was a man of few words, but the unconditional love that he gave out spoke volumes. He will truly be missed, beyond words can ever say. Affectionately known as Uncle Phil or Cut Buddy, departed this walk of life June 11, 2025 at his residence. He was preceded in death by his mother, Willie Mae McCrimon, sister/mother figure, Nellie Ree McCrimon, and nephew, Dewon Banks. He leaves to cherish his memories a loving daughter, Ameerah Cunningham of Atlanta, GA; loving sons, Phillip J. McCrimon of Huntsville, AL, Jeremiah Cunningham of Misawa, Japan, and Trevon Norwood of Huntsville, AL; two brothers, James (Nanette) McCrimon of Pearl, MS, and Nik (Laurie) McCrimon of Calera, AL; six sisters, Sheila (John) Cook of Huntsville, AL, Regina (Galvin) Garrett of Athens, AL, Bettye Jones of Alabaster, AL, Maybelline (Truman) Banks of Harpersville, AL, Dorothy McCrimon of Roswell, GA, and Evelyn Hale of Vincent, AL; three special nephews, Antonio Banks, Rondetric Banks, and Germania Hale; one special niece, Serena McCrimon; one aunt, Josephine Kidd of Harpersville, AL; and a host of nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.Celebration of life for Phillip Corneil McCrimon, age 51, will be held on Saturday, June 21, 2025 at 12:00 Noon at Liberty Christian Church, Harpersville, Alabama.
