Not sure what to say?

I worked with Phyllis from the time I entered graduate school at Cornell in 1977 and then again when I joined the staff at Cary in 1983 through about 2012. She was warm, funny, and smart. I miss her. She was both a coworker and a friend.

All those that Phyllis touched are better for having known her. She was a lovely person and she leaves a hole in the world. My sympathies to all her family

Phyllis was dear friend to me for as long as I can remember. She was funny and pleasure to be around. I will miss her as I would miss a member of my own family. I cannot imagine what a loss this is to here family. God Bless You Phyl.

Gene and family -

The end of life provides an opportunity to celebrate a life well lived. Phyllis's life was full and deserving of an Amen! Your Manchester family is with you in thought and prayer during your grief and joy.
