:cry: I'm so very sorry to hear about the loss of your son Michael, whom was a hero for being in Iraq to protect all of our freedom. May he rest in peace. I'll be praying for you and your family and friends in this very difficult time.

Fozzy, you and your family are in my prayers. Your son made the ultimate sacrifice for his country.


A 21 year-old Ardmore soldier is killed in Iraq. Michael Phillips graduated from high school in Ardmore.

He has two brothers and a sister who also attend school there. Monday, grief counselors were at the high school to talk with students.

KTEN's Hailee Holliday reports.

Staff members and students spent the day grieving the death of Phillips, who they say was dedicated and honorable.

Phillips was killed last week, supporting Operation Iraqi Freedom.

The military notified his family over the weekend.

Phillips joined the military out of high school and friends say he joined to fight for his friends, family and country.

Ardmore H.S. Assistant Principal Jake Falvey says, "Last year, I got a letter from him talking about his commitment to what he was going and he had found his place in life. The Phillips are a wonderful family and this affects everybody in the community."

Counselor Donnell Cox says, "When an actual crisis happens, we are on call to come to a school and assist the counselors and principal on how to facilitate kids."

Funeral arrangements have not yet been set.

My deepest condolences to Fozzy and his family. While I have always supported our troops fighting this war, it has been out of focus for me personally until now. It is now much more concrete and not as abstract. Should you need to reach out...let me know. :cry:

I have never been good with words at times like this. All I know to say is I am so sorry for your loss. Your son, Michael, will never be forgotten for all he has done for our country and my family. You and your family will be in my prayers and thoughts.
