Ms. Margaret Louise Phillips age 92 of Hickory, NC, formerly of Virginia drew her last breath here on this earth on Tuesday, November 29, 2022 following an illness.

Margaret was born May 24, 1930 in the Maiden Springs area of Tazewell county and was the daughter of the late James Thomas Cornwell and Myrtle Adaline Williams Cornwell. Margaret fell in love at the young age of 14 and there soon after, she married her true love, Raymond Franklin Phillips. They were blessed to spend 76 years loving each other before he passed. Margaret was a loving and devoted wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and great-great grandmother. Her greatest joy was spending time with her family and having them with her. She loved to quilt and make apple butter with her church family and friends at the Dailey's Chapel Church. She will truly be missed by all who knew and loved her.

In addition to her parents and husband, she was preceded in death by her sisters, Marie, Arabell and May and her brothers, Rufus, Bill, Frazier, Joe, John, and Ralph.
