Connie Jean (Rader) Phillips, 66 of Oak Hill, went home to be with the Lord on Saturday, December 31, 2016 at Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte, NC following a short battle with cancer. Born December 18, 1950 in Sun, WV to the late Cecil Ray Rader and Juanita Vernon Rader. In addition to her parents she was preceded in death by a brother, Bill Rader and nephews, Greg Rader and Zac Martin. Connie was a homemaker but was also a jack of all trades. She spent most of her time helping others by catering events, house cleaning, and especially taking care of her family and friends. She was a devoted employee with High Lawn Funeral Home as the pianist and greeter. Connie also loved to play music and sing, not only at home or with High Lawn, but with several churches. She attended Mountain View Church of God and also the Family Worship Center in Beckley. Connie never met a stranger and also had a bright smile on her face. She will certainly be missed by all who knew her.
