"I Peter 5:7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you." Our sincere condolences to Don, Morgan, and the entire Johnson and Jones families. Our hearts were deeply saddened to learn of Philander's passing.

The Lambert family grew up alongside Philander at The Holy Church of the Living God under Bishop M. Baker's leadership. Together, we participated in youth activities, sang in the youth choir, and attended Paxon Senior High School. Philander was a sweet, funny, and beautiful soul β€” both inside and out. She was a smart, intelligent woman of God, and she will be greatly missed.

We are keeping the entire family lifted in prayer during this difficult time.

With love, The Lambert Family

Ms. PJ will always hold a special place in our hearts for the many children's lives she touched through Kidz Academy, including my own son, Julian. Our sincerest condolences to you, Mr. Don and Morgan. She was truly a light.

My condolences to the family on your loss. God gives Life and God receives Life, and now Philander Lives with our Heavenly Father. Philander and I were classmates at Paxon c/o 80. She was my graduation partner and we were in homeroom together from Junior High to Senior High. I thank God for those times with her because she kept a smile on her face, kept you laughing, and always had a positive outgoing attitude. God has gained a Beautiful Angel in His Kingdom. My memory will always be of a beautiful young lady who joked and made you laugh and always had a smile on her face. Thank You God for sharing her with Us here on earth. You will be missed Philander, but you left a lasting part in my heart ❀️
