Phyllis Samor Obituary
Phyllis Joan Samor, 81, of Cheshire, CT passed away on April 23, 2023 after a long struggle with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder. She died peacefully, embraced in love from her family and support from her wonderful caregivers at Elim Park in Cheshire, CT. Phyllis was born in Hartford, CT on July 30, 1941, ten minutes after her twin sister, Priscilla Masek. Phyllis lived most of her life in Stratford, CT, and graduated from Stratford High School in 1959. She then completed her associates degree in radiology from St. Vincent's Hospital. Phyllis was a natural caregiver who dedicated her life to helping others. From her early years as a candy striper, and then raising three children, caring for her parents, and being a devoted grandmother to her eight grandchildren, Phyllis could always be counted on. Spending time with family meant everything to Phyllis, and she also enjoyed food, travel, cooking, golf, sports, and watching her son, David, play baseball. Phyllis loved to relax by the pool with her grandchildren, attend their extra-curricular events, and she looked forward to her annual visits to Chicago. Phyllis' lifelong friendships were very dear to her and were a source of strength, happiness, laughter, and comfort throughout her life. Phyllis was a genuine and beautiful woman who loved those around her fiercely. She was predeceased by her parents, Ethel and Robert Noel, and her twin sister, Priscilla Masek. She is survived by her three children, Jennifer Rhind (David), Laura Molnar (Paul), and David Samor (Ashley), and her grandchildren, Benjamin, Matthew, Alexander, Jenna, Lauren, Christopher, Remmington, and Cazimira. Funeral services will be held on Friday, April 28, 2023 at St. Mark's Church, 500 Wigwam Lane, Stratford at 11:00 AM, where a Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated. Interment will be held privately by family at Huntington Lawn Cemetery at a later date. Friends may call on Thursday, April 27, 2023 at the Galello-Luchansky Funeral Home, 2200 Main Street, Stratford from 4:00 to 7:00 PM.

Dear Jennifer, Laura and Family,
Your mom was a sweet and classy lady. I always loved her wonderful smile that lit up her pretty face. Please accept my deepest sympathy at this time.
She was such a great mother. I loved that she had me babysit for you, Jennifer and Laura. It seems like yesterday watching you girls. You two were so lovable and
sweet. I enjoyed being with you so much
and will always treasure those memories
at your pretty house on Anson Street.
I was upset that I couldn´t come to the wake or funeral. Every Thursday and Friday I babysit my granddaughter in Avon for my daughter Justine who has to work on those days.
God bless your wonderful mother and God bless you wonderful ladies too!

I am really sad to have read about Phyllis' passing. Phyllis was very good friends with my Aunt Justine (Duttie) Aspinwall Heriman. Duttie passed away on March 8, 21. I am sure Duttie will be waiting at the Gates in Heaven to welcome your wonderful Mother. My thoughts and prayers are with your all.
