Im not sure if this is appropriate to publish here, but I thought many of you from out of town would like to see. This is mandies obituary, as written by our family, to be published tomorrow: Amanda Bradley Phillips, 21, died Sunday December 21st 2014 at New Hanover Hospital from an unfortunate automobile accident. Surviving are her immediate family members, her identical twin sister Alexandra (Allie) Anne Phillips, a senior at ECU, brother Zachary Fitzgerald Phillips, a Ph.D student at UC Berkeley, mother Susanna Gocke Phillips, and father Bradley Morton Phillips, both of Ivanhoe, North Carolina formally from Wilmington, and grandparents, Norman H. Philips III and Bertha M. Phillips, and Geraldine S. Gocke of Wilmington. Extended relatives including six aunts and uncles and eleven cousins from various states, including Alaska, Montana, Colorado, Arkansas, and Virginia. Amanda (Mandie) was a senior Political Science Major at Appalachian State University and a active member of the Chi Omega sorority. Also a minor in physics, she was a recipient of the prestigious Andy Graham memorial scholarship from the Appalachian State Dept. of Physics. She was a proud volunteer at former senator Kay Hagans 2014 senatorial campaign and a well-known and loved employee of Motts Channel Seafood in Wrightsville Beach, NC. Everyone that knew Mandie loved her wit, her humor, and her passion for living life to the fullest. She was a spark that could ignite any conversation and was loved by not only her immediate family but all of her friends. She lived her short life to the fullest and her smile and spirit will be alive and in our hearts forever. In lieu of flowers, an educational fund has been established in memory of Mandie for her sister and brother, Alexandra Anne Phillips and Zachary Fitzgerald Phillips, to carry on the spirit of giving and support between all three of the siblings and their common dedication to higher education. Contributions may be mailed to Wells Fargo Bank, 1120 Military Cutoff Road, Wilmington, NC 28405 and made payable to Amanda Bradley Phillips Memorial Fund. Alternatively, our family would greatly appreciate donations to the Wrightsville Beach United Methodist Church in her honor, for their influence and support through the entirety of Mandies life. The Phillips family is extremely appreciate of all of the support, love, and understanding expressed by friends and family. A public memorial service will be held at Wrightsville Beach United Methodist Church on Saturday, December 27th at 11am followed by reception at the church and a private burial for the immediate family.
