To the children and family of Phyllis ... a very special lady. I only had the pleasure of her smile and little wisdoms one day a well when I used to deliver meals to her through TVCCA, but I will forever remember the joy I had in that very short weekly visit. I recall with a smile, how thrilled she was to enjoy her 80th birthday "flings" as she called them... sharing all the pictures of her family and friends from those events. I will miss her and her family will be held in my prayers for...

Smith Family,
We were deeply saddened to hear of the loss of your mother. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you all. Her friends saw her as a woman with a strong spirit as she was able to manage life's adversities with such determination and courage. We were in awe of her.

Smith family,
You're in my thoughts and prayers. I'm very sorry for your loss and I know it's hard. Fortunately, we have the wonderful hope of seeing our loved one again, according to the scriptures. May this good news, as well as the memories of Ruth comfort you during these times.

To the family - I met Phyllis over 17 years ago when I took over the health insurance counseling and assistance program (now CHOICES) for the state. I not only would see her at trainings but since I also reside in Ledyard I saw her often at activities around town and having breakfast or lunch at a local restaurant. She was always a delight and we spoke each and every time we saw each other. Such a wonderful lady. So sad to watch the passing of people who have become friends through this program.

I was heart broken to hear the news of My Godmother passing today from my mother,Ms Bonnie Keller..My wife and I want to let her children and the rest of the family know we are keeping all of yall in our prayers down here in Virginia...We both enjoyed our visit with her and Debbie a few years ago while In Connecticut....We will always keep you Mother in our prayers and in our heart....May God Bless you all in the coming days...

I will miss my dear friend. My sympathies to her family and friends.
