Tall, commanding, and with a sometimes rather dour demeanor that belied a quick wit and dry, wry sense of humor, Phyllis was a presence. She was talented; beautiful in her youth (as we saw from the double photo frame at her memorial--one side a young Raimondo; the other, a young and very striking Phyllis; devoted to her children; and highly professional in her work. Everyone who had known her at Gourmet had a kind and fond word to say when they heard of her death. I'm sad for Carla's loss. And I'm glad she has "First Thing in the Morning," written by Phyllis and photographed by Raimondo--a wonderful record of a small girl growing up in New York City and of her parents' love for her.

Phyllis was a smart and talented woman with whom I enjoyed working in the art department of Gourmet magazine. I appreciated her unique sense of humor, and will always hold fond memories of her. She was one of a kind. Another artistic spirit has left us.
