The most heartfelt thoughts of peace and strength go out to Frank and Phyllis' whole family. I've had the honor to practice yoga with Phyllis in all parts of the world! Her kind, compassionate and witty spirit will always be with us. May there be solace in this time of deep sorrow. We love and miss you from Mountain Moon Yoga.

I will miss Phyllis greatly. She was a good friend and one who you knew would be there when you needed her. I will miss our monthly lunches/visits deeply. Rest in peace dear friend.

Phyllis' death is a great loss and I extend my deepest sympathies to her husband and her family. I met Phyllis on the first day of high school and always found her a wonderful friend. I last saw Phyllis at her mother's funeral, and even at that sad time, she was full of life. Her passing was sudden and still fills me with tears. Good night sweet "Phlyp".

I am so sad to hear of Phyllis' death. We worked together these last few months and I looked forward to our continuing friendship. She was so much fun to be with and felt that I had found a true friend. She will be missed here in Kremmling by all those who knew her.

A few weeks ago Phyllis met me and several girl friends at the park in Kremmling for lunch. - We laughed like little girls discussing the great times and crazy but fun situations that happened while we were working together in Grand County - I and many others will miss her quick wit and laughter. She had so much to give and she did freely. God Bless.
