"Dad", Chele, Kene, and family;

Though nothing we can say can ease the pain you are feeling at the loss of "Mom", but please know that you are in our prayers. Phyllis will always be mom to us. WE loved her with all our hearts - we will miss her deeply. We cherish the memories and time we had with her. We are fortunate to have known her. I know our lives are better because the part she played in it. "Mom" was always there to lend an ear or to give her love and advice. We are here for you now and always!

Love, Vern, Stacey, Sammey, Sydney & Taylor
