Phillip Kennedy, 50, of Louisville, Ky., passed away unexpectedly at his residence on Jan. 27, 2014.

Along with his family left to mourn his passing are the Roy and Hanson families.

Phil grew up as a north side kid, attending Harvey 

Elementary and Washington Jr. High.

Flipper, as his father lovingly nicknamed him, made friends with every life he touched. He would do anything to help anyone in need including driving six hours north because of his daughter, sister or a friend needed his help.

Graduating from Bradford High School in 1981 Phillip worked for RH Machining and Borque Petroleum (Petro Mart) before moving to Kentucky in 1993. 

The family will be holding a celebration of Phils life on March 8, 2014, and ask that memorials be made to Phils daughter and family. Please contact Phils sister Linda at mudulutch@msn.com for celebration details.
