​Janet Rae Phillips, 84

?Janet Rae  Phillips, 84

?Janet Rae "Jan" Phillips, 84, of Warsaw, passed away peacefully at 1:30
PM on Wednesday, June 10, 2026, at Memorial Hospital in Carthage.
?Jan was born in Southgate, California, on February 23, 1942, to George
and Margaret (Ray) Townsend. On August 8, 1969, she married Jim
Phillips in San Diego. They eventually settled in Warsaw, and Jan worked
for many years at Methode Electronics in Carthage.
?Though under five feet tall, Jan’s spunky spirit was larger than life. Instantly
recognizable by her signature hairdo, perfectly manicured nails, and
favorite stacked rings, she was a true character who left a lasting
impression. Jan was a natural social butterfly and a steady, devoted anchor
for her family. She loved playing bingo, going on local police ride-alongs,
and taking trips to the Catfish Bend Riverboat Casino.
?Jan is survived by her husband, Jim; her children, Jimmy Barragan, James
Phillips, and Ronald (Suzanne) Phillips; a twin sister, Janice Kilgore; and a
multitude of grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and
cousins. She was preceded in death by her parents; two daughters, Dalea
and Tina; and a sister, Sharon.
?Cremation rites will be accorded. Arrangements are under the care of
Printy Funeral Home in Warsaw.
