To all the Phillips family,
We were all very shocked and saddened to hear of Darryls passing. We have lots of memories of Darryl as Norm just loved working at the car yard and was treated with such kindness by Darryl. A fun loving happy soul with an infectious smile.

He will be sorely missed by a large number of people as I'm sure most of Ashburton have bought a car off Darryl at some stage. I'm sure Norm will be up there in heaven saying "What are you doing here boy?. Come and have a beer and a catch up".
Thoughts are with you all at this sad time.
Love from Norma and Lisa Cartwright, Trudi and James Martin and family and Shelley and Peter Wellspring and family.

To the Phillips Family
Sharan and I are so sorry to hear of Darryl's passing.
Darryl was such a good bugger always had a smile and witty sense of humour.
We shared and will always remember the great times had on rugby trips,
Pumpkin competions and boxing day events.
Darryl was just one of those good guys that are special and unreplacable.
Sadly missed and sad for not being able to share in Darryl's celebration of life.
