Obituary  
 
Samuel Phillips was born at Randolph, Wisconsin, October 9, 1857.  He lived 
there until 1879 when he moved to Wood River, Nebraska.  He was united in 
marriage to Esther L. Cooley December 12, 1883, in Wood River.  To this union 
eight children were born, two dying in infancy.  In December 1918, Mr. 
Phillips moved to Fruitland, Idaho and purchased the 15 acre tract east of 
town where he has since made his home.  He was engaged in apple growing and 
farming until he was taken sick January 1, 1929.  He has been under the 
doctors care every since.  He passed away Saturday, November 30 at 4 p. m. at 
the age of 72 years, one month and 21 days.  He leaves to mourn him his wife 
of Fruitland, two sons, Thomas Phillips and Unis Phillips of Fruitland, three 
sons, Alva, Ray C. and Mortimer J. Phillips of Emmett, Idaho, one daughter, 
Mrs. Maude Phillip-Haack of Grand Island, Nebraska, one brother, J. A. 
Phillips, and one sister Mrs. Mary Denman of Alda, Nebraska.  He also leaves a 
large circle of friends who will greatly mourn him.  He was one of the most 
highly respected citizens of the community, a good neighbor and a kind friend.

by Rev. McKinley Coffman.  His pall bearers were J. H. Smith, Marx Thode,
