To My Brother [Bob Phillips] We can't choose our family members As we go along life's way. When it comes to who's in our family tree- We just don't have any say. But if the time ever came along And it were possible to do, When I was picking a brother There's no doubt that I'd choose you! Love, Russell Eugene Phillips Your only brother, Jake [KID] xoxo Dad called his brother "Russell Eugene" Jake right after he was born, Grandma told me that my dad wanted to name my Uncle Jake... Jake but she didn't like the name so she named him Russell Eugene and right away dad started calling him "Jake" and it stayed with him his whole life. They were very close brother's. xoxo Dad's three sister's are: Helen, Rose & Norma xoxo
