Monica Rae Phillips

Monica Rae Phillips, maiden name Monica Hall, age 47 of Lewes, DE passed away on Thursday, April 25, 2024. She was preceded in death by her husband, James Barclay Phillips II or Jimmy as he was known. She is survived by her daughter Meredeth Ann Rhoades, parents Karen Propes, Jack and Ellen Hall, siblings Jason (Nicole) Hall, JoAnn (Matt) Purnell, and Chuck (Jenn) Speake.

Monica was born on March 16, 1977, at Milford Hospital, spending her childhood in lower Delaware and graduating from Milford Senior High School in 1995. She was proud to earn her real estate license but most especially when she brought Meredeth, her only child, into this world. Monica was involved in the American Legion and the Punkin Chunkin scene. What at times seems like a second lifetime later, Monica married Jimmy and made a special home for them in Lewes. Their property was simple and provided much of what she needed such as a garden that kept her busy and gave her ingredients to cook or can delicious recipes that she enjoyed sharing; a “she shed” to make crafts with shells and other items; and a place to care for the animals they had taken in. This season will be difficult for family and friends alike, but all can take comfort in knowing she is experiencing complete rest and peace.

On Saturday, May 11, 2024 visitation begins at 3:00 PM and service immediately follows at 4:00 PM. Both will be held at Lofland Funeral Home, 102 Lakeview Ave, Milford, DE 19963.
