Phillip Toland, a devoted husband, father, and servant of God, passed away on Wednesday July 17th, 2024, at the age of 63. Born on March 29th, 1961, Phillip lived a life filled with love, laughter, and a commitment to his faith.
A resident of Cabot, AR, Phillip was a dedicated employee of Home Depot for 34 years, where he shared his passion for helping others. He was an active member of 1st Assembly in North Little Rock and Forever Free at 1st Assembly in Vilonia, where he served with joy and humility.
Phillip's love for God was evident in every aspect of his life. He found solace in the words of Psalms 30:11-12, "You have turned my mourning into joyful dancing. You have taken away my clothes of mourning and clothed me with joy, that I might sing praises to you and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give you thanks forever!"
When he wasn't working or serving, Phillip loved to indulge in his favorite hobbies – NASCAR, fishing, and woodworking. His unique touch of charring wood created beautiful pieces that will be cherished by his loved ones.
Phillip was preceded in death by his mother Helen Toland and his in laws Jack and Thetus Lamb. Left to cherish his memory is his loving wife of 22 years, Diana Toland. They had 5 children and 12 grandchildren between them; daughter, Sarah Toland Kilgore (Rodney), children, Keegan and Emma Rose, son, Stephen Toland (Lisa), child, Hero, stepson, Stephen Miller (Melanie), stepdaughters, Kim Oxner (John) and Christy Herbert (Jarrod). Also left to cherish his memory are his father, Bobby Toland (pop); his sisters Denise Toland Duncan and Gail Toland Grayson (Rob), niece Amber Smith, and nephews Jason Smith and Daniel Grayson. Phillip also had a host of other family members and friends.
Join us as we celebrate Phillip's life, his love for God, and the countless memories he created with his family and friends. Let us honor his legacy by continuing to share his joy, laughter, and devotion to others.
