Some of the greatest times I had were with Aunt Phyllis. You will be forever missed. You were always positive in everything. You always saw the good in eveyone. I know I will see you on the lighter side. I love you.

Aunt Phyllis was always so industrious. She shared adventures with us whenever we were around. In every part of life I remember her adding some twist to make it fun and worthwhile. Because of her I was never afraid to eat green eggs and ham. To my cousins, I know you are relieved her pain is over but I also know it doesn't really take away from the loss. I love you.

I light this candle as my morning coffee brews and I watch the weather for driving conditions from New Orleans to Texas. With this candle I pray for healing from the sadness of our loss, the safety of all those driving to be with the family today and comfort for all of Phyllis's children. I often recall Psalms 91 when traveling, both on the highway of life and on the road. May this candle bring light to our hearts today, tomorrow and till the end of our journey.
