I have fond memory's of both your parents, I never knew them when I was a child living on conklin rd. And taking my walk to "Wisemans Market" some of the best childhood, and teen years memory's. I am so sorry for your loss

I am so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. After she moved back from Florida, Phyllis was one of my fave's at LOUMC. I loved to chat and joke around with her every chance I got, which was not often enough for me. I missed her on the Sundays when she was not in church. There are certain people that you just look for when you come in to lead worship: Phyllis was soon one of those for me at Lake Orion.

You were certainly blessed to have a one of a kind mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and mother-in-law. From stories I heard from Phyllis and many others, your Dad was a very special person, too. You must have a wonderful stockpile of delightful memories. I have found that as the years roll on the sadder memories(like illness, nursing homes, hospitals, etc.) seem to fade first and the good times seem to come to the fore.

May God give each of you the comfort and strength you need at this very special time in your lives.

If you were to pack for Heaven,
this is how you would do it:
Touching Everything, Taking Nothing,
Except the Love. Phyllis takes our
Love with her to Heaven.
