Barbara Ann Phillips

Barbara Phillips age 88 left this earthly life to join her Lord on Thursday May 19, 2022. She waited 21 years to reconnect with her beloved husband of 50+ years, Louie. She was welcomed by her parents Charles and Ann Ehrhardt and her two brothers, Jimmy (Aldridge) Ehrhardt and Mickey Ehrhardt. She is survived by her daughter, Julie O’Neal and her two sons, John and Jock Phillips. Barbara had 5 grandchildren, Stacy Cleary and Kelly O’Neal, Joshua, Brie and Jessica Phillips. 2 great granddaughters, Cassey and Carlee Cleary and 1 great-great granddaughter, Ella Ann Cleary-Rivera. Barbara was born in San Diego California, but the California girl made Arizona her home soon after her marriage to Louie where they raised their three children. Barbara was a master craft lady, quilts, needle point, knitting, crocheting to sewing clothes for herself and her family to making costumes for the grandchildren. She was a baker at heart and Christmas cookies were her joy with her grandchildren as she helped manage the decorating with all the little hands going wild with sprinkles on the cookies. Lastly, she loved her bulldog Tank who became her companion in life. She will be greatly missed by her family, but the comfort is knowing she is once again with the love of her life, our dad. Private services were held on Wednesday June 1st at St Odilia Catholic Church.
