I will always remember her kindness which was readily apparent from the first moment you met Mrs. Cox and always I will remember her passionate love for her family. Mrs. Cox's smile could light up any room. Hers was a life well lived and she leaves behind a legacy which will echo for generations. Please know our Phillips family is sorry for your loss and we have prayed to God for your comfort and peace.
Sincerely,
Tim Phillips

Warmest condolences,

It's never easy to lose a love one. Please find some comfort in God's promise found at John 6: 40 says that we will soon see our love one again.
