Philip Haywood Obituary

Coach Haywood was a teacher of mine in 7th grade at Meade County. Fine man then and remember his wife and daughter. So very sorry for your loss.

Rebecca, I am so sorry to hear you lost your brother. My brothers funeral was Sat. at Northcutt Funeral Home in Morehead. Also, my husband ,Tom Brennan, passed three years ago on Jan. 22. Ironic. I know you will sorry miss Phillip. My sympathy is with you. Love to you

My brother and I grew up with Philip many years ago in Prestonsburg. We moved to Ohio in the mid 60s so lost touch but I look back those days as very memorable. Philip was always the best at anything he attempted.

My condolences to his family on , what I can imagine, is a tragic loss.

Phillip was one of two special children of Ms. Carlos and Arthur Haywood. I’ve known the family since I had Ms. Carlos as a teacher and later as a neighbor. What a wonderful family and I’m sure Phillip was welcomed home. Prayers for Rebecca, Linda, Melissa, Jacqueline and all who love and will miss his earthly presence.

My Sincere Heartfelt Condolences to Linda and the Family during this time. I pray the Lord wraps his arms around you and comforts you. Coach was a remarkable Man that left his mark in a lot of people’s life, I felt honored to be one of his students when he was at Prestonsburg but most importantly proud to call him my friend. Eastern Kentucky lost a true Gentleman. Until we meet again Rest In Peace Coach Haywood.

My deepest sympathy and prayers to Coach's wife and entire family. He will be deeply and sorely missed. Although Coach Haywood has left our community, his spirit will live forever in the hearts and minds of the people he touched in such a special way, just as he will live forever with his Lord and Savior!
May God comfort you.

Greatest man and coach I have ever known.

I knew Coach Haywood through coaching against him over the years at Leslie and Breathitt counties. We would have fierce games but coach always exhibited class. While at Leslie in 95' prior to the regional championship game I called coach and told him the game would be stopped to recognize Tim Couch if he broke a national passing record. Coach Haywood's response was, " we were going to come across and congratulate him if he broke the record anyway". I will always remember him for that display of class. Rest in peace coach.

God Speed

As a counselor in higher education, I found Coach Haywood as always kind, extremely protective of his students, and always, always the perfect gentleman.
