Not sure what to say?

Phyllis was more than the creative guide to Faire. She was an inspiration to be better, not only to me but to her Faire Family of thousands. She championed quality over quantity and raised our expectations of ourselves to an ever increasing level. I would like to think that I am a damn fine actor and it is because of my ongoing 52 year run in the creative atmosphere of Faire. Thank-you yet again and myriad times over!

I would like to share a DVD with your family of the Faire taken in the early 70s The film was taken on 8mm and I added sound 400 feet of fun at the Faire call me for your copy 951 9262527

Thank you, Phyllis, for everything.

Thank you Phillis you was part of my live

Thank you for the fun, the fantasy, the costumes, the painless learning experience and the history. I have been apart of your dream world since 1971.

The scope of embrace required

There are few people who have more of a difference in my life than Phyllis and her amazing, crazy vision. While I cannot even imagine what I - or my life - would have been like, it most certainly would not have been so rich and densely populated.

I was there in the early 60's. Everyone from John Marshall High School went we had a blast. RIP and "Thank You"

Thank you, my Dear Phyllis.
Thank you for your Love and Friendship. And that wonderful Sand Box you created for all of us to play in. Eternal Gratitude and Love.

Phyllis we miss you

Like many of the thousands who's life Phyllis touched I offer the deepest of sympathy.
