Phyllis was a very dear friend of mine all the way through High School. She always made me laugh and we always seemed to get into trouble together. I would always catch up with her at the Frederick Fair.
When I moved to North Carolina I didnt get a chance to see her as much. She will always hold a special place in my heart.
Phyllis my BFF you will be missed by many.
May You rest in Peace and May God wrap his arms around your family at this time of need.
Love until we meet again Dear Friend

Phyllis and I met in first grade at North Market Street Elementary School. She had a magnetic personality and a wonderful sense of humor. Always fun to be around!
May her spirit live on in your memories and stories of her life.

I am so sorry for your loss. I waited on you, Phyllis, Gary, Jr. and Shane at F&M Bank every Friday night. I remember the boys would always bring their change in to deposit in their savings accounts. I always enjoyed waiting on you and Phyllis. Time really passes by quickly because I have been retired since 1991. My thoughts and prayers are with you and the family.
