Bradley William Phillips, 59, of Pigeon Forge, passed away on Monday, November 28, 2016. A native of Alexandria, VA, he and his beloved wife of 35 years, Melanie, fulfilled their dream of living near the mountains of East Tennessee, and relocated in October 2016 to a beautiful home in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. In retirement he looked forward to establishing roots in his new community, sharing his love of music, history, and animals. A gifted musician, he played saxophone in the U.S. Army Band for 21 years, followed by a 16-year career as a licensed electrician with Ennis Electric. He also played the piano and the hammered dulcimer that he hand built using museum drawings. Brad was a gentle spirit, kind, generous and a caring friend to anyone needing help or a listening ear. He delighted all who knew him with a keen wit and his unforgettably infectious laugh.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Perry and Caralyn Phillips of Alexandria, and is survived by his wife, daughter, sister, nieces and nephews.
