PHILLIPS, JESSE W

[br][br]On October 31, 2015, Jesse W Phillips was called home to his eternal reward. While we have lost a friend, a father, a grandfather and a mentor here on earth, we know that he will continue to be a great influence to all those whose lives he touched.
"Sonny", as he was known to the family was born September 15th, 1925 in the Chilkoot Army Barracks in Haines, AK to Jesse and Bethel Phillips. Times were hard and Sonny learned the value of hard work as he spent his youth hauling tarwood and chopping cotton in the fields of Florida. A move to Fort Vancouver would yield his first views of the Pacific Ocean and perhaps a glance into his own future.
Ever the Patriot, Jesse came of age doing electrical work in the Kaiser Ship Yards in Portland, OR where he overcame the limitations of an 8th grade education and learned to do complex mathematics and read blueprints. At 17, he asked his mother for permission to join the Navy and help with the War effort but was denied. He was patient however and enlisted in the US Navy on November 3, 1943 shortly after his 18th birthday. Jesse attended 12 weeks of basic training at Farragut, ID on Lake Pend Oreille before learning the skills he would need as a Radioman. For over 3 years, he manned the radios day and night on ships such as the USS R-4 (R class coastal defense submarine), the USS Dentuda (Balao-class attack submarine), the USS Piranha (Balao-Class attack submarine), and the USS LSM 382 ( Amphibious Landing Ship). RM2 Phillips served with distinction throughout the Asiatic Pacific Theatre earning the Victory Medal and the Good Conduct Medal. As one of the few Radiomen available at the time, he often went for days, sleeping just 10-15 minutes at a time, in order to monitor radio traffic. Jesse was Honorably Discharged on August 2, 1947.
After spending a few months enjoying civilian life, Jesse took a job with the Railroad working as a telegraph operator. He found the desolation of Ephrata, WA too much to bear and promptly left for better opportunities in the big city of Spokane, WA where he began work at the City Ramp Garage on the corner of 1st and Stevens. "Phil" Phillips as he was known to his customers, enjoyed working at "The Ramp" and quickly rose to the position of General Manager where he stayed for over 40 years. Always quick with a smile and honest to a fault, he was the man that everyone trusted to keep their vehicles safe and on the road. Jesse donated many hours in service to the business community as a member of the Rotary Club and Toastmasters.
Jesse wasn't all work however... He enjoyed many pursuits such as hunting, fishing, dancing, and the outdoors. It was these rugged qualities which must have attracted one Jaquelin Dexter, with whom he fell in love and married in 1951. Jackie and Jesse worked side by side at the City Ramp and had a wonderful marriage that lasted 43 years until her passing in 1994.
Upon retirement, Jesse moved to a cabin he built on the banks of the Pend Oreille River in Newport, WA where he was a fixture at the local Eagles Club. Every Saturday would find him out on the dance floor kicking up his heels and enjoying some good country music. When not out dancing, Jesse liked to carve wooden ducks and work in the garden. He also volunteered at the Chamber of Commerce and the Pend Oreille Historical Society.
Just like the job in Ephrata, the solitude of the cabin began to wear thin and Jesse once again moved to the big city of Spokane where he lived with his longtime friend and companion Colleen Flynn. Together they enjoyed traveling, dining with friends and family and spending time at the local casinos. Jesse was a lifetime member of the VFW Post 51 in Spokane where the two enjoyed attending events on a regular basis.
Jesse is survived by his daughter, Linda Flack of Otis Orchards, WA and two grandsons, Robert Flack of Otis Orchards, WA and Phil Flack of Priest River, ID. A memorial service will be held November 19th at 5pm at VFW Post 51 in Spokane, WA. In lieu of flowers, please send a donation in his memory to the "Children of our Heroes" fund . AMVETS Post 92 8415 N General Grant Way, Spokane WA 99208.
