Scott "Scotty" Nick Phillips Jr.

Mr. Scott “Scotty” Nick Phillips, Jr., age 76 of China Grove, passed away on Sunday, October 31, 2021 at his home surrounded by his loving family after a period of declining health. Born June 7, 1945 in Little Rock, Arkanas, Scotty was the son of the late Agnes Cherry Phillips. In addition to his parents, he was also preceded in death by his sisters, Mary Phillips and Fabena Almond.

Scotty spent his career in his early years as a mechanic and then prior to his retirement, working for the Town of Davidson. His greatest joy came from drag racing, a love he shared with his family and friends. He loved everything about it – working on the cars, racing, and being at the track.

Those left to cherish his memory are his wife of 49 years, Percella Hager Phillips; daughters, Lisa Winkler (John) and Kerri Henry (Rick) and his sister, Janet Hoke. He also leaves behind his grandchildren, Dillon Winkler (Courtney), Brittany Sprinkles, Jessica Winkler (Logan), Madison Henry and Brandon Winkler, along with his great-grandchildren, Jaxson, Colt, and Macey.

Graveside Service for Scotty will be on Wednesday, November 3, 2021 at 3:00pm at West Lawn Memorial Park in China Grove. The family will be receiving friends and family at the Phillips home afterwards. Linn-Honeycutt Funeral Home is honored to be serving the family of Mr. Phillips.
