Charles “Phillip” Sayles was born on February 25, 1952 in Little Rock, Arkansas to Earl and Lois Jones Sayles. 

On January 22, 2018 at 65 years of age, Phillip was reunited in heaven with not only his parents Earl and Lois, but with his brothers Jim Sayles and Tom Sayles; his loving aunts Ruby Finch and Mildred “Mickey” Hammons.  Phillip was also at last reunited with his son, SGT. Phillip Nicholas Sayles, an Army sniper, killed in action in Mosul, Iraq during Operation Iraqi Freedom.

Phillip leaves behind a loving wife of 41 years, Pearl Lentz Sayles; two other sons, Joseph Sayles and Wesley Sayles of Jacksonville; a brother, Don Sayles and his wife Mildred of Mt. Home; his Aunt Emma Jean Sayles Purtle; and sisters-in law Helen Lentz Barnes, Teri Sayles Kouri, and Carol Sayles.  He also leaves behind many nieces, nephews, and friends who looked up to him and will deeply miss him.

Phillip was a locksmith and a security camera specialist.  In past years he worked for Baptist Health and the Federal Reserve.  More recently, he worked as a self-employed contract delivery driver for Smart Choice Delivery in Little Rock which allowed him and Pearl the opportunity to travel and together experience so many lasting memories.

Phillip was a very kind, patient, and honorable man who loved and took care of his family.  Most of all, he loved his Lord.

Family and friends will gather together at Zion Hill Baptist Church, at 11923 Zion Hill Road, in Cabot on Friday, January 26 at 1:00 p.m. to honor Phillip with a memorial service and a celebration of his life with Bro. Terry Fortner officiating.

The family would like to express a special thanks to Rebecca Garrett, Bro. Terry Fortner and the members of Zion Hill Baptist Church for their outpouring of love and support. Cremation arrangements are by Moore’s Cabot Funeral Home (501) 843-5816.
