According to the Spokane County Medical Examiner's Unclaimed Remains page, Phillip Jack Bell's date of death was 09/19/2000 and his date of birth was 12/01/1953.

NamUs has his date of birth and date found as unknown, and the title of this thread has his date of birth as 06/04/1953 with date found as unknown.

It looks like year of birth is 1953 so will start from there.

I found an address history for a Phillip Bell aka Phillip J. Bell aka Phillip Jack Bell in Seattle, WA; Billings, MT; Everett, WA; Spokane, WA; and possibly Lakewood, WA.

Associated persons are listed as:

Donald L. B.
John E. B.
Katherine F. B.
Loni R. B.
Lonnie R. B.

I also found a listing in the Billings Gazette from April 22, 1972 under "Divorces Asked" that says:

Cheryl Lynn B. by guardian ad litem Leland W. J. vs. Phillip J. Bell by guardian ad litem Lonnie R. B.

If this is the same Phillip J. Bell, it sounds like he got married and divorced young, and perhaps Lonnie R. B. is his father?

I have only found one Lonnie R. B. in Billings, MT thus far and it is a fairly high profile radio DJ whose biography says he went to Montana 42 years ago to fill in for a weekend on the radio with the rest being history. PM'ing the information to Nemo'smom and Raine!

I found a wedding announcement from the Billings Gazette on June 15, 1971 with a photograph of "Mr. and Mrs. Phillip Bell":

They said 'I do'

Cheryl Lynn J., daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Lee W. J., 1945 Parkhill Drive, became the bride of Phillip Bell, son of Lonnie B., 3110 Hardin Road, and Mrs. Mildred B., Tacoma, Wash., in a double-ring ceremony at First Methodist Church. The Rev. James Fitzhugh officiated.

The bride is a graduate of West High School. The bridegroom graduated from Clover Park High, Tacoma, Wash., and is serving in the Army at Fort Monmouth, N.J.

They will live in New Jersey.

This seems to show a Washington state connection? I will try to locate immediate family members in the Washington area as well.

I found an SSDI listing for a Mildred L. Ball who is listed as an assocated relative (and possible mother) of Phillip J. Bell:

"United States Social Security Death Index," Mildred L Bell, 2010
First Name: Mildred
Middle Name: L
Last Name: Bell
Name Suffix:
Birth Date: 7 August 1923
Social Security Number:
Place of Issuance: Florida
Last Residence: Renton, King, Washington
Zip Code of Last Residence: 98057
Death Date: 23 October 2010
Estimated Age at Death: 87

If the Spokane County Medical Examiner's Unclaimed Remains page is correct and Phillip Jack Bell passed away in 2000, then Lucille passed away after he did. Perhaps they were estranged or perhaps the maternal family knows?

I also keep seeing the name Kathleen B. in Washington state pop up as an associated relative of both Phillip and Lucille. Perhaps a sibling?

I sent all information on to the case manager. Thank you for a great job Tifflee. NM
