Not sure what to say?

Dear Phyllis Sewell's family - I was very sorry to learn of your loss. Phyllis was an inspiration to me in my community work with Federated/Macy's through the years. For both United Way and our employee volunteer program, Partners in Time, she asked thought-provoking questions that strengthened our outreach and recognition.

To the Family of Phyllis Sewell I offer my condolences. I met and served with Phyllis for many years on the Sysco Board. She was not only a board member but mentor and friend. She was a dedicated board member, role model, great mother, grandmother and friend. She will be missed. Dr. Judith Craven

Patty and I are saddened by Phyllis's passing. A dear, caring friend and a wonderful boss. Our deepest sympathy, Charlie.

Both Martin and Phyllis were very supportive of me after I arrived alone from South Africa to work at Jewish hospital, their kindness will never be forgotten, Dr. Herb Schapera
