When thinking of Phyllis, I think bright and shiny. She would light up a room. When I first married into the Layne family in 1972 , Steven and I moved to the same neighborhood as Phyllis, Don,Tanya and Tiffany. They made me feel very welcome. Phyllis made us beef stroganoff and I still make it today and think of her. We will miss her.
