Phyllis and Harry were very important people in our lives. We rented from them, liviing in the litttle house in back of there's and spent a great deal of time with them....on vacations.....shariing the first steps of our first daughter, Denise, stopping at the ice house in Mount Vernon to pick up a square of ice for the cooler, and had many wonderful memories of our time with the two of them.
They were a loving and wonderful couple to be with.

Phyllis was a joy to be around and was treasured by anyone who knew her. Her soft spoken demeanor and smile were always welcome at our Emblem Club meetings, of which she was a charter member. I was proud to call her a friend. And before we moved to Alaska I would share Italian prunes with her every year from one of our many trees. She told me she enjoyed every bite.

"Miss Phyllis" visited me on a daily basis at the play area in the Burlington Fred Meyer. I have already missed her smiling face since last fall.
