Not sure what to say?





I had the privilege of working with Phyllis in Yorktown Heights many years ago. She was a kind and giving person, always willing to help others. I had lost touch with her after she moved from Mount Kisco to South Carolina. I just recently learned of her passing. I will miss her greatly. Rest in peace, Phyl!

My sincere condolences Michael, Linda and family members,

As a co working with Phyllis at Springbrook Behavioral Hospital for several years, Phyllis and I developed a friendship which continued long after we both retired.

I thank you Lord, for the gift of her companion and for the
time we've had together

And thank you Lord, for giving me the strength to give her to you now
I will miss her dearly,
Gerri
