RESIDENT FEATURE© Best Version MediaMee Phillip and Shellie SmithBy Phillip and Shellie Smith as told to Bob DruckmanPhoto by Mandi Cook PhotographyPhillip was born and raised in Huntsville. He met Shellie, who wasborn and raised in South East California, in a little town called Holtvilleafter transferring to Yuma Arizona in the Marine Corps. Phillipgraduated from Grissom High School in 1984, and American MilitaryUniversity in 2014 with a BA in Homeland Security. Shelliegraduated from Holtville High School in Holtville California, andwas a junior Escrow Officer with a title company. Phillip and Shelliemet at church when she came to visit her brother who attendedthe same congregation as Phillip. Being divorced, Phillip was onhis final tour in the Marines. They soon became friends and starteddating, taking their children to various places such as SeaWorld,Disneyland, and beaches around Southern California. They weremarried in 2001 which made for a family of five.Their oldest, a daughter, is currently serving in the Navy in California.She has blessed the family with a daughter, and is currentlyexpecting a son in October. The middle child, a son, is a groundskeeperat a local golf course in Huntsville. Currently he is unattached.The youngest, another boy, is married and now resides inGeorgia. He and his wife both served in the Navy and have broughta baby girl into the world.Shellie and Phillip moved to Huntsville in 2008, shortly after Phillip’sretirement from the Marine Corps. After multiple trips aroundthe world and after visiting over 30 countries, Phillip says that helikes the friendliness and pace of Huntsville.Phillip left Huntsville when he joined the Marines in 1985 to"see the world" and "gain discipline". Phillip admits to havingseen much of the world. “The Marine Corps teaches an individualto be self-sufficient and to lead. These traits work welleither working for someone or running you own business. Thesense of responsibility taught by the Corps, allows Marines toaccept that "the buck stops here" attitude is necessary for missioncompletion.”Shellie worked for Escrow when she met Phillip, yet when thebubble popped in the housing market, it made more sense for herto raise their children as a stay-at-home Mom.Phillip and Shellie both worked for a SUNMED franchise beforepurchasing the one they worked in. For them, it was a way to continueto help those friends they made, and to be their own bosses.14 SOUTH HUNTSVILLE NEIGHBORS Submit Content at:

THC and Terpenes are extracted using Super Critical CO2 and

ethanol. These are the cleanest methods to extract the substances

from the plant. The resulting product is shipped to Florida, where

our in-house PhD Chemist formulates all of the products. Once

the in-house Chemist is happy with the product, it is sent to an

independent third-party testing laboratory. The laboratory's report

is tied to each product through the QR code and lot numbers. This

ensures that what the label claims is what is actually in the product.

But all of this is just ensuring that SUNMED customers and

friends are receiving the highest quality CBD possible.

Phillip is currently reading a series by W.E.B. Griffin titled "The Colonels".

Shellie normally reads a newspaper that is sent to the house.

Our favorite foods differ a little bit with Phillip enjoying meat and

potatoes with his wife enjoying Mexican Cuisine.

When asked who they would invite to dinner they replied “If I could

invite 3 people to dinner it would be my Grandparents said Phillip;

even though that would be four. Shellie said she would invite potential

entrepreneurs.

A message Phillip and Shellie would like to convey to the readers

of South Huntsville Neighbors is that "Our Safety and Quality ensure

a good product. We are not a smoke shop, but a place to come

and receive CBD, and in some cases THC, to help in your lifestyle.

Many people believe in the health benefits of CBD and we look

forward to meeting their needs."

While there are numerous CBD stores out there, SUNMED is a

leader in the industry with consistent quality in their products.

The SUNMED founder was told that CBD would help her Crohn's
