Your mom was a very dear friend who I wold see every Tuesday night. Then I found out she was your Mom Phil and you and my late son Ryan were of course good friends. When Ryan was ill, she came to the hospital almost every day, and she helped me with all the phone calls for Ryan's service.
I truly believe God puts angels in human form to walk among us, your Mom was truly one of them. My love and prayers are with all of you

To the Knight Family, Dan, Danny, Robbie, Phillip and Timmy.
I cant even begin to tell you how deeply I am moved by your loss. I was only 23 years old when I came to the Ayala Apartments with a three year old little girl, looking for a place to live. With not a whole lot of work experience behind me and no guarentee that I could pay the rent. Phyllis gave me and my daughter, Danielle, a place to live... a place to call home. That lady had heart. To this day, I am still grateful to her for that one break in life that I so desperately needed. Timmy grew up with Danielle. Phyllis became my friend. 23 years later, I still think of her as someone God put in my life to bless me. Her passing has put a hole in my heart. Just so you all know, I loved Phyllis, and will always love Phyllis. please e-mail me: [email protected] Tell me how you are all fairing. I love you all.
Cindy Fernandez, and Danielle Hughey
