Lucille (Hall) Phillips

Lucille Hall Phillips (102) went to meet her Savior on October 9, 2024. Lucille was born in Macon County on July 18, 1922, to Oliver V. and Bertha Byrd Hall. She graduated from Franklin High School in 1940 and married her high school sweetheart, William J. (Bill) Phillips in the summer. She and Bill lived in several locations during his tour in the army. After his discharge, they returned to Franklin to start their family and Lucille began her career working for Bryant Furniture, the Bank of Franklin, Macon Construction Co., and Macon County Supply.

Lucille was active in her community, being one of the founders of the Belle View Community organization. She was a fifty-year plus member of Nequassa Chapter #43 of the Order of Eastern Star and served in several officer positions in the chapter including Worthy Matron. She was honored by The Franklin Press as Mother of the Year in recognition of her contributions to the community and her family. Her role as the family caregiver extended over many years as she cared for her mother and father, her husband, and her daughter until their passing. She was a model of kindness, readily sharing her energy, time, and resources with others.

Her family was the highlight of her life. She was preceded in death by her parents, husband, a daughter Martha Jane Woodlee and a sister, Jean Bulgin. She is survived by a daughter Suzi (Larry) Cabe; four grandchildren Carmen Cabe (Russell) Soles, Stephanie Cabe (Mark) Berry, Christi Woodlee (Sean) Butman, and Andrea Woodlee (Mike) Avery; nine great grandchildren Abrianna (Tristan), Trace, Chesnie, Ari, Ben, Sydney, Meredith, Aaron, and Aliza Jane; one great, great grandson Coburn.

A graveside service will be held at 11 o’clock on October 19, 2024, at Woodlawn Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to St. Jude’s Hospital or your favorite charity.
