Aunt Phyl was truly one of a kind and I was very sad to hear of her passing. She always made you feel so special and important and that was just one of her many beautiful traits that put her in a class by herself.
To her wonderful family, you are all in my thoughts.

My, Mother, Fran Green lived in Apt 105 at the Oaks. She was a weekly bridge player with Phyllis and several of the other residents. I played many times when they needed a 4th. We both enjoyed knowing Phyllis, she played a very good bridge game even into her 90's. Our prayers are with the Hostetler family.

Hostetler family, my thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. I have had the joy of knowing and enjoying Phyllis since we each arrived in Fremont in the mid-60's. a lovely person, erudite woman, great fun, an enjoyable bridge partner are just some of the accolades I can list. But mostly I enjoyed her as friend! I am so blessed to have had her in my life.
