Have know Tatum (Phil) since I was 15 when our family started visiting the Tatum Farm. We all became fast friends and went from Florida to the Kentucky Farm for years. Have stayed in touch with Phil ever since. Will miss our chats and we all had some fun times. Right now I believe Phil is with his family, my husband and those that have gone before him living in the presence of our gracious Lord!! Missing you my friend. Love ya always Sharon Bolin 09 04 2020

So sorry, to hear about your loss of Phil! I lived close to Phil in Scottsville. I used to work on the farm for Phil dad when I was young. Phil went with me to Dalton, Georgia and help me buy a big roll of carpet and Phip helped me on a building project. He was a great friend and I will miss him! Vicki and I went to the same school and the same grade! Praying for Comfort and peace!
