We were so sad to hear of Phyllis's passing. She was dear friend and neighbor. We have many good memories. She was always there to chat with our daughters under her carport. Take care!

I will forever remember Phyllis, always sitting outside enjoying the weather. And even as a chatty little girl she always welcomed me over to visit. My prayers are with your family at this time.

I just heard of Phyllis' passing over the weekend. My thoughts and prayers are with her family here in Ohio and in Florida. I'll always remember many talks with her and Jane under her carport and also my dad helping to cut her grass and take care of her house when she would travel to Florida for the winter. She was a great neighbor and friend.
