Phyllis will be greatly missed in my life and in our music circle. She always had a positive attitude and great solutions. Her laugh was infectious and her spirit was wholehearted. I will miss her telephone calls, emails and her famous Red Roosters. Rest well sweet friend. Love, Linda Strock

It is hard to understand why our loved one are taken from us so soon. Phyllis of all people just was not ready to end her journey. She was so full of life & so much fun to be with. She had such a goo heart and was always there to include people in good times or help someone in need Barry and I had so many good times in the 5 years since we met you. Following the band going to main street every Sun or Mon.and then playing cards. She was very patient in trying to teach me how to play pinochle. I never did get the hang of it. Hold on to your memories and take comfort in the fact you have many friends that want to help. May God wrap his loving arms around you in comfort to ease your pain. Love, Lois and Barry

Walt and family of Phyllis, I am so very sorry for your loss of such a wonderful person. Although I had only know Phyllis for a short time, we had so much fun golfing and bowling together. I wish I could have had more time to spend with her. She will be sadly missed.
