ERICA SLAWSON PHILLIPS

NEW BROCKTON… Erica Slawson Phillips, a resident of New Brockton, Alabama, passed away Tuesday, September 30, 2025, at a Dothan hospital. She was 48.

Services are planned for October 10, 2025, but final arrangements are not finalized at this time.

Mrs. Phillips was born in Opp, Alabama to the late Gerald Robert Slawson and Shirley Elaine Walden Slawson. She was a 1995 graduate of New Brockton High School. Erica has lived in New Brockton, Alabama for the last 26 years. She attended the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses – Enterprise, Alabama. She loved life and her family more. She loved to fish, and she especially loved fishing at Ft. Gaines, Georgia and thought of it as a second home. She loved the outdoors, and cooking was one of her passions. She was blessed with the gift of gab and never met a stranger. She will be missed by all who know her as a friend.

Leaving to cherish her memories are her husband, Jeremy Phillips; her daughters, Jacy Phillips and Kyla Phillips; her son, John Phillips; and her sister, Melissa Slawson Montgomery.
