Phyllis Agner Obituary

Phyllis Jean Agner, 64, of Thousand Palms, Calif. passed away September 15, 2010 surrounded by family. With the light of each day Phyllis inspired everyone with her determination, positive outlook, dazzling eyes, and her sense of humor. Without realizing it, Phyllis taught everyone who was a part of life's journey how to live life. We celebrate her life and she will forever remain in our hearts. Phyllis is survived by her son, Bernard (Mike) of Michigan; mother, Deena and step-father Ron Taylor of Thousand Palms; four brothers, Ron, Rick, Kerry, and Kevin; sisters-in-law, Dixie, Connie, Pam, and Monica; and sister, Brenda and husband Joe; and many nieces and nephews. There will be no service. In lieu of flowers the family suggests donations be made to the American Cancer Society.

Sissy, I know you had a restricted life Physically but now you can Dance with "God".....Love Your Birthday Brother
Sister's..."She is your mirror, shining back at you with a world of possibilities. She is your witness, who sees you at your worst and best, and loves you anyway. She is your partner in crime, your midnight companion, someone who knows when you are smiling, even in the dark. She is your teacher, your defense attorney, your personal press agent, even your shrink and Some days, she's the reason you wish you were an only child."

The way you described Phyllis in the obituary couldn't have been said better. She had such a spark for life & a wonderful sense of humor that we all enjoyed. She will be greatly missed and we will all be richer for having known her.
