Phyllis K. Walters

A woman of extraordinary courage, brilliance and passion. One of Al Jourdan's most loyal and devoted 'doves' of peace.

Please accept our sincere sympathies.

Phyllis was a great friend to my father, Larry Lee. This was a proud day for them. They worked to give voting rights to 18 year olds, many of whom were being sent to Vietnam.

Phyllis was a dynamo. She was such a persuasive, yet thoughtful and insightful person. She was a great mentor to me as a County Board member, and my mom, former statoe representative Rosemary Kurtz. Mom and I liked to kid Phyllis about how she was the most popular politician in the county. But we really weren’t kidding, because we knew she WAS the most popular politician in McHenry County! She had a big heart, was a consummate professional, and deeply cared about her employees and the people...

We have lost an extraordinary woman: a game-changing public servant, a staunch advocate for local history and an innovator who transformed the county recorder's office. She will be missed but her legacy will live on. Rest in peace.

What an inspirational woman! A true matriarch. We know how very much she will be missed. Our hearts are with your family at this sad time.

Offering our deepest condolences during this difficult time.
