I met Bernard awhile back when he was looking for a Funeral Home to buy and I became his Realtor. When my Son suddenly passed away, I knew I could count on his Family to take care of my arrangements. Bernard & his staff were very professional but at the same time very caring. Whatever I asked for they said they could make it happen. Their prices are very reasonable and they went over everything that was involved in making my Son's funeral the best it could be. The front balcony made a great place for those needing a place to sit, talk, smoke & meet family. I appreciate all he did for our family during this very sad time. Love you all, from the Murphy & Nassif Family.

First give honor to our Heavenly Father. Want to begin by saying thanks to Mr. Bernard Phillips. Wanting to say thanks to the Phillips and Sons entire staff for the Beyond Exceptional service that they done for our love one Willie Rutledge on December 30, 2023.
We were so impressed with Mr. Phillips humbled spirit and soft spoken caring voice. The trust ,professionalism, expertise, and navigating our family at a vulnerable time. All questions were addressed and answered, calls and texts as well.
The Staff's Mannerism, body language, poise, attire, attentiveness of Mr Rutledge's 96 year old Mother as well the manicured fleet of vehicles. Everything was in order. As well as the conclusion at the Gravesite.

Phillips and Sons handled my husband Eddie B. Duggan’s funeral services. I met with Bernard Phillips with no understanding as to what or where to go in handling my husbands home-going. He met me with a smile and his deepest sympathy and assured me that he would handle my husbands service with care and boy did he do that. He took my vision and went above and beyond my wildest dreams. The service he prepared for Eddie fit him to a tee. He including all the things that represented my husband and then some. The love he showed the entire family from beginning to end was astronomical. I most certainly would recommend his services to anyone. His prices are set to be within anyone’s means without you having to stress whether you can give your loved one the service they deserve. The entire team at Phillips and Sons are absolutely amazing. Thank you for taking care of my husband Eddie B. Duggan!

The family of Elder Dewey Taylor, Jr. cannot express enough how grateful we are to the entire team of Phillip & Sons for everything they did for us. We were able to celebrate the life and legacy of our dad in a beautiful way. Bernard and his team took us through the entire planning and execution of this process effortlessly. Because of my work experience, I am a person of detail and very particular about how things are presented. I can honestly tell you, Phillip & Sons went above and beyond patiently answering every question, implementing every request, and their professionalism is absolutely outstanding. When you're grieving the loss of your loved one, in this case my beloved dad, you can't even think straight sometimes. Phillip & Sons lightens that load and removes that stress, and I highly recommend them to anyone. In closing, shortly before my dad passed, I asked my son who has autism to pray with me that my dad recovers. He replied, well we can have a funeral for him and he will like it. Indeed it was my dad's time to return to our Heavenly Father, and Phillip & Sons made sure we had a homegoing celebration that Elder Dewey Taylor, Jr. would like. God bless you all now and forever.

Where do I begin; I had never even heard of Phillips and Sons before. One of my older siblings suggested that we use their services for our mothers home going celebration. When I say I was stunned at how amazing her service was. The Directors and staff where all a joy to work with; they made sure that every detail was perfect for her. The staff even joined us in the traditional fish fry on the Friday before my mothers service. They were so professional, their attitudes were great. Nothing we asked of them went unnoticed there were even some things within the service that we had no recollection of; I can speak on behalf of my family and say that the job was well sought out and executioned phenomenally. Again Thank You to the directors and the staff at Phillips and Sons, May God continue to richly bless your business.

Phillip & Sons Funeral Home provided phenomenal, five-star service to our family. The first time my dad and I spoke with Bernard concerning my uncle’s funeral I was convinced that this was the funeral home that could best provide for our family’s needs. And to say the least they did not let us down; from the professional staff to the excellent obituary that Alfred provided, to the attention to detail. On the day of the funeral, the staff was amazing, they even went above and beyond the call of duty and helped the family to navigate through an unforeseen situation. We as a family highly recommend Phillip & Sons Funeral Home. Phillip and Sons Funeral Home are by far the best in the area!!!

Wow! Where do I start, the service was amazing, but to see the behind the scenes work, effort, and passion that went into making this day one that can peacefully be remembered, it blew me away! I’m so grateful to have chosen to work with Phillip & Sons, the thought that went into everything, the additional remembrance calendars and the blanket, was the icing on the cake! I truly feel our Dads is at peace and proud of all of us, he definitely felt the love. Bernard was amazing, he took time out of his busy schedule to answer every call, text, email, whatever to ensure that our every need was met! The encounter will forever be cherished, I thank you all again, and you will forever have a place in my prayers!

Bernard and the entire Phillip family rallied around us when we lost both parents within two weeks of each other. They went above and beyond to make a difficult time much easier for us. The compassion and professionalism they extended was a true comfort. Thank you Bernard and team!

To lose one parent is devastating, but to lose both parents within 11 days of each other is life changing. Phillip and Sons The Funeral Directors Inc. (Melrose, FL) helped us maneuver through the hardest time in our lives. Bernard Phillip was in constant contact with us and answered all of our questions of the process we were going through. We could not have done this without him. He is such a caring and loving person and his feelings and emotions show in the work he does. He cares for the families that he works with and that is what families need during the death of a loved one. Thank you Bernard for being who you are and caring for the families you work with!

As much as I didn’t want to ever lose my mom- when you lose someone there are certain arrangements that have to be done. Phillip & Wiley/Phillip &Sons were amazing. I’ve never done this before and when I walked in to that funeral home, behind my false-brave face I felt intimidated, and lost. But the people at Phillip and Wiley walked alongside me for every step of the way and treated mom with the utmost care. The entire staff was amazing, and special thanks to Bernard for helping me every step of the way.

I remember when you told me that you was a mortician when I hooked you up with my friend here in Atlanta, I thought it was morbid(I still do lol) but Young man it's truly your ministry to be by the side of grieving families and to be a facilitator for them to start their healing. You made your dream come true. I personally was comforted and inspired. I have to say THANK You again for the professionalism and beautiful job you and your team did. My family and the other family thought everything was so lovely. Thank you for making it easier to lay to rest my cousin Shanea, friend I'm so proud of you. So proud.

The loss of a loved one is heartbreaking, chaotic and emotionally draining and never easy. I expected to be treated as a transaction and taken advantage of during our time of grief. I was reluctant to utilize a different funeral home, especially a newer funeral home. I'm glad we did! Making the arrangements for our father was one of the hardest things I've had to do and there were some "bumps" along the way. Phillip & Wiley Mortuary was there every step. Our new normal presented several challenges regarding a service for my father. Mr. Phillip was very patient and understanding, he answered all of our questions, addressed our concerns, made revisions at the drop of the dime, day or night. His level of respect and candor helped us plan our father’s Celebration of Life as stress-free as humanly possible. I must say I was very impressed with their level of impeccable service, professionalism, and dedication to serving others in their time of bereavement. Your exceptional service speaks volumes. The numerous conversations, the special requests, and the heartfelt way that you took care of our dad as we said farewell to a gentleman will never be forgotten. Our father was a man that prided himself in his appearance and you upheld that standard. You exceeded all our expectations and much more. You even made a special tribute blanket with my father’s picture as a surprise personal gift! My father's arrangements were delivered with dignity, compassion, and class! Phillip & Wiley Mortuary lived up to their motto of "Service Beyond Expectations" On behalf of the Johnson Family, we thank you!

I would love to thank Phillip and Wiley Funeral home, for showing up and showing out. Death is never a easy experience to deal with especially when it involves your child. Mr Phillip was very cordial and concerned as he helped our family prepare for my son’s final journey. In times as tumultuous as death we need less stress and more guidance as we are preparing for services. Mr Phillip showed us empathy and understanding of this process. It was a journey with my son being in another state and I had to wait on his wife to recover from her injuries. Mr Phillip’s demeanor and his spirit was truly genuine and his concerns were real. I didn’t feel as if I was a customer I felt like we were family. Mr Wiley and staff my hat tips off to you all for excellent service and the most amazing the programs were above my expectations. I would refer and suggest that everyone give this establishment a try because during death you don’t need a business handling your love one you need a friend and I thank you all for being our friend.

Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. Matthew 5:4

LaBrittany was…A Wife, Mother, Daughter, Granddaughter, Sister, Niece, Cousin, and Friend

On Christmas night 2020 after the death of our daughter, I had the opportunity of speaking with Mr. Bernard Phillip about how to begin the heartbreaking funeral planning process. The compassion and thoroughness the staff at Phillip & Wiley Mortuary showed was EXCEPTIONAL. They were truly a blessing to me while making the arrangements. Our hearts are full of gratitude for the big and small details the staff provided. We cannot say THANK YOU enough for the beautiful service.

To the staff of Phillip & Wiley Mortuary: Trust in the LORD with all your heart; and lean not unto your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths. Proverbs 3:5-6 God’s continued blessings.

Phillip &Wiley made the arrangements for my mother and we couldn’t be more pleased! After losing her tragically and unexpectedly the last thing we wanted to think about was planning all of her services. They thought of everything and made the whole process as painless as possible! They even made a special tribute blanket with her picture as a surprise personal gift! The mortuary is beautiful and they made everyone feel comfortable. They definitely made us feel at ease and helped us get through the most difficult time in my family’s life!

Phillip and Wiley was extraordinary with their service. They were kind and caring and made this process stress free for my family. My grandmother was beautifully laid to rest; They paid attention to detail and was on point with everything that could have been thought of in this unfortunate event. I’m more than happy my family chose Phillip and Wiley and I would recommend them to anyone in their time of need.

Phillip & Wiley was my first experience with a mortuary and I cannot speak highly enough of their compassion and professionalism. Communication was frequent and they remained freely accessible, regardless of the time. All of my questions and concerns were addressed without any kind of pushback or dismissal. I don't believe there's a single word to represent the perfect blend of respectfulness and candor present at Phillip & Wiley; but these amazing individuals helped my family with an interment in the rain. I do believe that I have been quite spoiled by their standard level of service and I am grateful that they were part of my funeral experience.

I would like to thank Phillip & Wiley Mortuary, Inc so much for everything you did. My husband passed away on June 18, 2020 in Lithonia, GA. My mother recommended Phillip and Wiley to provide service for my husband. I contacted them the same day he died and I spoke with Mr. Bernard. He was awesome! He informed me that I had nothing to worry about and believe me I didn't. My husband was brought back to Jacksonville, FL from Lithonia, GA that same day. The personal service was so much more than I ever expected. I was very pleased with the funeral service. I would not hesitate to recommend your service to anyone.

My family and I can not thank the staff enough for their professionalism during this hard time. From 1st contact they provided service beyond expectation. We were in awe at the office visit. We had to coordinate an out of state burial and Bernard, got on the phone immediately and reached out to a Funeral home in the state we were going to. He coordinated that entire exchange! Jane was a pleasure to work with and offered her help in every area. Ron greeted us at the viewing and offered support while the family viewed our love one. Amanda offered comforting conversation during our viewing and was a great support during the funeral.
My aunt was groomed so well. The amazing job performed by PW Mortuary was beyond our wildest dreams. She looked AMAZING!
Even at the burial site, hours away from Gainesville, they provided the most awesome service, EVERYONE on staff is GREAT, PATIENT AND KIND. PW Mortuary is above standard in this industry. The Frasier family is very grateful! Many Thanks!!!

We would like to extend a debt of gratitude to the entire Phillip & Wiley Mortuary staff for the exceptional service they provided to our family after the passing of our beloved grandmother. We were utterly impressed with how they walked us through the funeral arrangement process with great detail and patience. Thank you Mr. Phillip for making the process a lot less stressful with daily communication and updates regarding important details. Thank you Mr. Wiley for taking the time to accompany us to find an ENTIRE ensemble for our grandmother. She looked flawless! It gave our family an immense sense of closure to see her beautiful, with a smile, and at peace. Special thanks to Jane for her promptness. Jane you were AWESOME! We were a handful at times undoubtedly, but the Phillip & Wiley staff handled each situation with extreme professionalism and for that, we are forever grateful. During the time of a love one's demise, Phillip & Wiley Mortuary will provide Service Beyond Expectations Guaranteed!

"Service beyond expectation," is a very apt description of PhillipWiley. I live in Rockford, IL and recently attended the funeral of my sister, Lula Mae Melton. Bernard Phillip is very compassionate, ahead of the "game" of mortuary science, as well as his skillset being second to none, I wanted to thank him personally for his professionalism, compassion, and for being who he is. It is never easy (as he said) losing a loved one, but seeing them at their best does remove some of the angst, if not the hurt. Mr. Phillip outshines every mortician I have met, and I have met many. I wish we had you here in the Midwest Mr. Phillip. God's blessings and favor to you as you continue to help families in their time of grief. It is very apparent that your skillset in mortuary science is top-notch. Thank you seems so little, but we all indeed thank you!
Sincerely,

I really don't know where to begin as I tell everyone of the exceptional service that my family and I, received from Phillip and Wiley Mortuary Inc. The passing of my mother was one of the hardest things for my family to deal with. Phillip and Wiley, handled my mother with grace, and treated her as if it was their own mother, from the day we called to have her picked up. If there was a check list of things to go by, as it relates to the service they provided my family, literally every box and some would be checked! They far exceeded every expectation I had. They were there to answer our questions or to make revisions at the drop of the dime, day or night. The White/ Williams family, is eternally grateful to Phillip and Wiley Mortuary, their impeccable service and dedication to serve others in their time of need, speaks volumes about this funeral home. Choose Phillip and Wiley Mortuary for all your burial needs and I can guarantee, that they will far exceed any expectation you have or had.

We cannot begin to express or sincerest gratitude for the phenomenal job that you bestowed on our family. Many thanks for treating mom and our family at our lowest and greatest time of need. Mom said for the first time she was at lost for words due to the passing of our beloved Craig. That is truly momentous because normally mom spearheads everything. Phillip & Wiley Mortuary, Inc. took the driving seat and orchestrated the entire service with such grace and dignity. My mom was able to sit back and grieve properly. From the numerous conversations, the many special requests and the heartfelt way that you all treated my brother in his final transition. Words cannot ever repay for the exceptional job that you undertook. My brother was a man that prided himself in his appearance. You exceeded all our expectations and much more. My brother would have been proud of how well he was take care of during his final rest. That radiant smile on his face expressed that he entered his final flight in peace and happiness! Job well done.

The beginning of Sept. 2019, I called Phillip and Wiley to pick up my Godson and handle the services. I never expected anything in return - this is what they do. Well, I received a thank you and sympathy card the following week. I said to my husband, "that was nice". Well today is our Godson's birthday... upon checking my mailbox, I pull out a card that recognizes our baby's birthday and acknowledges that his birthday is special. This REALLY is "Service Beyond Expectation"! Thanks Phillip and Wiley Mortuary! We couldn't do it without you!

I made a mess of things, and Philip & Wiley Mortuary came right in and took the weight off my shoulders! Once my daddy was in the care of Philip &Wiley's I called or texted every day! His passing was unexpected and I acted as if he was in the hospital.. I asked how he was doing , was he ok? And each time they ensured me that he was well taken care of.. I even called to ask what size shoe he wore, and of course they took the time to find out! My family was unable to make it Phillip & Wiley Mortuary, Mr. Phillip was able to use Digital viewing for our first family viewing! I wasn't as ready as my other family members but, He gave me the time I needed to process the situation. We have not made it to the service part yet, but I know that this staff will help us celebrate My Daddy well... I will gladly say that this is the best Mortuary in FLORIDA!!! There are something's you can't ever repay a person for....These are called BLESSINGS 🙌🏿
Thank you Marcus Andre' Allen, Bernard Phillip & Wiley Mortuary!!!

The family of Jamie Baxter would like to extend a heartfelt appreciation to Bernard and the Phillip and Wiley staff. This was a very difficult time for us seeing as though my brothers passing was sudden,Bernard was there with us the entire time no matter what time I called or texted him he responded. The incredible job they did with my brother all the way to making sure our clothing selection was on point and adding his own spin to it blew us away .The service was just as we wanted .I would definitely recommend them .

I want to Thank the family at Phillip & Wiley for such a beautiful service for my mother. Everything was perfect. Bernard really put up with me stressing. He explained everything to me & not just trying to get money. This was my first funeral & he guided me in the right direction. Thanks

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Philip Wiley. My mom passed away on February 19, 2019 and like many of us I was unsure how to actually plan a funeral or even know my next step. They made the process seamless and for lack of a better phase, a pleasure. They were always available, answered all of my questions, handled the family drama with grace and gave us a beautiful visitation and graveside service. Thank you for everything.

I can recommend Phillip and WIley wholeheartedly. They treated me so kindly, and personally, making the process of such a hard time so much gentler.
I especially appreciated that they related to me as people. It helped.

My sister passed away suddenly in early October. She did not have insurance . We called around attempting to plan a funeral and quickly found out we were looking at around $10,000 easily, for a simple funeral. We happened upon Phillip and Wiley Mortuary of Melrose and were instantly relieved! They are very, very reasonably priced. They were extremely professional and went way above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of every step of the way! Including this morning when they contacted me to let me know my sister’s headstone was in, which I had totally forgotten to even inquire about! I highly recommend them to everyone! Please consider these guys should you unfortunately find yourself in need of services.
