Resident was 92 years old
Ragland area saddened by death of Dillie Ann Phillips

I as well as all Ragland was very saddened due to the passing of Aunt Dillie Ann Phillips on Monday, September 26, 1983. Aunt Dillie Ann Phillips was 92 years old and lived most of her life here in Ragland except for a few years in Birmingham. She was known and loved by everyone in Ragland. During her illness she was always pleasant and kind, as she always was before her illness. She never complained whatsoever.

She was a landmark in Ragland and will be missed very much by all. Before her illness, she was always visiting the sick and always saying a kind word to them. She was a wonderful cook and when anyone had been in the hospital and returned home and feeling better, she would make them some of her special foods such as cakes, pies and soup and carry them to the sick.

Another unique and wonderful thing about Aunt Dillie Ann was the fact she was a devoted Christian, raising four wonderful Christian children. She always had time to stop and talk with people, always saying something nice to them. The one among hundreds of nice qualities about Aunt Dillie Ann and also one of the most important, was the fact she loved all of her family, and all her nieces, nephews and many friends. The testimony during her life as well attested to her love for God and love for all. From the smallest child to the oldest each will automatically tell you how dearly they loved Aunt Dillie Ann and what an inspiration and influence she has been in each of their lives.

Aunt Dillie Ann was born near Ragland in July of 1891 and knew quite a lot about the history of Ragland and surrounding area.

Earth's loss is certainly Heaven's gain. She is now with the Angels. I loved you dearly and as long as I live, I will never forget you and what you meant to me. If all the people in the world were like Aunt Dillie Ann, there would be no wars, hatred or any kind of evil. There would be peace, love, understanding and compassion.

All of Ragland salutes the memory of a great and wonderful lady.
