Phillip Wayne Jacobs was born in San Antonio, Texas, on September 7, 1979, to Gordy and Freda Jacobs and passed away on March 31, 2025, in Jackson, La.
Phillip worked for the last 7 years at BASF and over 20 years at Georgia Pacific, where he met his best friends and mentors. Phillip was endlessly talented. He devoted a great deal of time to his passion for art and music. He enjoyed drawing with charcoal and had a surplus of pencils. He was committed to his love of acrylic, watercolor, and oil painting. He loved woodworking, electrical work, gardening, cooking, and reading. Phillip enjoyed collecting knives, cast iron, and beard combs. Phillip could sing the words to any song and play almost any instrument, but he especially enjoyed his guitar. Phillip spent many hours with his guitar, teaching others how to play and attending "band practice" with his friends.
To know Phillip was to love him. Phillip was the center of any gathering and loved to make others laugh. He also enjoyed laughing at you or with you. He shared his quick wit, sarcasm, dad jokes, and pranks with anyone he encountered.
Phillip will be dearly missed and survived by his wife Stephanie and their children and grandchildren: Kayla Jacobs (Trae Ball), Taylor Guyer (Eric Pointon), Taylin Jacobs, Rhett Guyer, Vivian Guyer, Tarra Guyer (Conner White), Hunter Jacobs, and grandchildren Karson, Kamdynn, and Kasidee Ball, Lennox Pointon, Anastasia, Violette and Xyla Guyer, and Crue Allen White. He is also survived by his Sisters: Mona Abdullayev and Charlotte Ashley, nieces, nephews, and enumerable beloved friends, coworkers, and neighbors that were cherished family.
Public visitation is 9-11 am on Saturday, April 5th, 2025, at Charlet Funeral Home in Zachary, La with a service to follow where we will welcome everyone to share memories of such a memorable man.

I never met you in person, but I always saw Steph´s posts about you. Thank you for being the man she and the kids deserved. It was amazing to see her have the love and happiness I always wished for her. You were an angel before you got your wings.

A man of wit, talent and charm that was fun to be around. He just knew how to keep you laughing by turning any situation into joke. Besides being a natural comedian, his artistic talent was stellar.
He will always be remembered!

I´ve known Phillip almost his whole life. He has always been just that person kind and funny and hard working. He was just a boy and grew up with my kids then one day my husband came home with his boss. It was Phillip and boy was that rich. Gone way to soon he will be missed.

The mold was broken with Phillip. Truly one of a kind. I will always cherish my memories of Phillip. He had an unmatched wit and his humor lit up any room. He combined this with a superb intellect and work ethic. I count myself blessed to have had the opportunity to know Phillip. Rest in peace brother.
