Detective Phillips, you took an oath to protect and serve the citizens and this great country. In the performance of duty, you made the ultimate sacrifice.

There is no greater example of honor. May your loved ones, friends, co-workers find peace. May the citizens realize the sacrifice made by the law enforcement officers every second of every day.

Rest in peace Detective Phillips, we have got it from here.

Mike,
You always maintained a positive attitude and would not hesitate to go out of your way for others. Whether it was on duty or off duty. We will never forget you or the sacrifice that you made. Rest assured that your family will never be abandoned and will always be a part of our family. I remember vividly talking to during that day not knowing that it would be the last time we spoke. No amount of words can express the loss that I and everyone else feels......you have touched many lives and you will be truly missed forever.

I had the privilege of knowing Mike while he was a student at the Hampton Roads Regional Academy of Criminal Justice and then as a Police Officer in Hampton.

He was a dedicated community servant and he will be severely missed by the entire law enforcement community. My thoughts are with his family and friends as they grieve his truly untimely death. Mike will be remembered as a hero to all who knew him.
