Our Lord, who sees all and knows all, will reward you abundantly for your courage, dedication and selfless service. My heart breaks for the sorrow that your parents are experiencing.

Deputy Phipps, a police officer should be remembered not by how he died but by how he lived! A brave man has left to secure a safe path for the rest of us to follow. Thank you for your year of commitment to law enforcement, your family, and the Russell County Sheriff's Office. Our country is a little less safe without you. Rest in Peace, Brother!
