Reviel Jean Phillips was ushered into heaven from her home on 04/06/2022 after an extended illness with Parkinson's Disease. Born Tompkinsville, KY on 03/23/32 at home.

She was preceded in death by her parents Dewey and Gladys Ward; as well as her siblings, her older brother, Earston Ward, and older sister, Myrtle Morgan.

Mom is survived by her husband, Marcen Phillips; and her children, Debbie (Steve) Ratliff, Dana Clarke (Marshall), Doug Phillips (Kathy); grandchildren, Matthew (Stacey) Ratliff, Clint Ratliff, Patrick Phillips, Katie (Nick) Williams, Luke (Paula) Clarke, Kallie Jean Phillips, Marcus Graham (Anna) Clarke; great grandchildren, Saige Ratliff, Amberlyn Ratliff, Lake Ratliff, Keegan Phillips, Liam Phillips, Addie Williams, Blakely Lane Clarke, Carter Williams, Aubrey Clarke; great great-granddaughter, Greylynn Hanson.

She graduated from Gamaliel KY High School in 1950. Then went to work as a LPN. She met dad in Anderson, IN and then they were later married in 1954. They immediately started a family. Mom taught Sunday School and was a true servant as well as a deacon's wife at Anderson First Freewill Baptist Church for approximately 20 years. In 1977 they moved to Cullman AL and for the last 37 plus years they have been members at Bethel Freewill Baptist Church.

Mom was a full-time mother first and foremost, a fabulous cook in which she grew almost everything in her garden. She once canned at least 120 quarts of her green beans one summer. Her family and friends were so fortunate to eat her wonderful cooking but our richest blessings came from hearing her pray. She would shake the gates of heaven in a way that none of us will ever forget.

The funeral service will be Friday, April 8, 2022, at 11:00 AM at Cullman Funeral Home Chapel. The interment will follow at Enon Baptist Church. Rev. Lamar Cox will officiate the service.   The family will receive friends from 9-11am prior to the service on Friday morning.

Pallbearers will be: Luke Clarke, Marcus Clarke, Matthew Ratliff, Clint Ratliff, Nick Williams, Patrick Phillips.

Cullman Funeral Home is honored to serve the Phillips family.
