Was thinking of Phyllis yesterday, we didn't receive a Christmas card last year therefore
had a not so good feeling .Wish I had known so that I could have attended funeral to say goodbye.

Beloved neighbours at Glenview , Phillip and Phyllis ....wonderful conversations , very passionate about her causes and totally aligned with her thinking.A nice looking woman , looked amazing , never seemed to age .

Very sad to know that she has gone , hopefully joined Phillip and happily chatting away .
Condolences to Angus and family.

There is much to remember Phyllis Creighton for. I knew her as a Raging Granny and anti-nuclear peace activist. Each year on August 6th, she led the commemoration of Hiroshima and Nagasaki on Nathan Phillip's. Square and most recently in the Peace Garden that was moved to the west of the site. Phyllis was very active in Science for Peace, an organization of academics at U of T. She will be remembered by many as a strong advocate for peace.

Phyllis was a force of nature -- formidable and memorable. I met her as Lisa, Jane, and Douglas' mother, through the nearby schools, and through SEED, and then later through the peace movement and other activist organizations. She will be missed. My condolences to the family.

It was my honour to have Known Philip, Phyllis and Angus for many years until my retirement. Phyllis was a rugged individualist bu we seemed to have a very harmonious doctor patient relationship.

Angus assumed the role of caregiver without complaint for both parents with respect and affection.

May your entire family come together at this time. May Phyllis's memory be a blessing.
