Not sure what to say?

I was just beginning to know Phyllis. I found her to be engaging, curious and interested in everything and everyone around her. Such a delight. I had lunch with her just before she left for New York and we had a great time. I had no clue I wouldn't see her again. My sincere condolences to the family.

We are holding your family in our hearts and sending you all so much love.

Sending my heartfelt condolences. What an amazing life and a beautiful family. I had the good fortune to have met your Mom at the last Holiday party we threw before COVID/shelter in place. She was so lovely, we enjoyed getting to know her briefly. Sending you all so much love and peace of heart.

I met Mrs. Lusher once 3 years ago at her home in Healdsburg. She lit up the room with her grace, kindness, and intellect. What struck me most was her approachable sophistication. My deepest condolences to your family. Sending love, Laura

I´ve known Phyllis my entire life, and with every passing year I appreciated her more. Her understated brilliance, her love of culture, her loyalty, her wry wit - and most of all her utter devotion to her family. She never sought the limelight, but she was always such a superstar. I miss her already. Sending love to Annie, Tess, Rob and Alison and the rest of the gang. She will surely live on in them. Leigh
