Phyllis was a very positive aspect in our lives. She will dearly be missed by the Herrera family. She was always Grandma Phyllis to our children and to our Granddaughter, Issy who shared her 2nd B-day cake with Phyllis and the video is priceless. So glad we got to share in so many of the memories that we will hold next to our hearts!

Phyillis I will miss you dearly. It's so true that you are a loving mother who not only shared your love with your family but always kept your heart open to share with others. I will never forget the many times you sat with me at the dinner table, taking time out of your busy work schedule to give me words of encouragement and advice on life issues and especially just sit, talk and laugh. We had allot of laughs and it is a joy to share you and your family in my life. We always remember the great and special people in life and Phyllis was a very special person in my life. What a beautiful person, inside and out. I will miss her and always remember her as my Aunt Phyllis. Love You all and God Bless.

I shall never forget Phyllis and all that she did for her family and how she put up with her childrens friends just dropping in and sometimes staying for days. As we aged and had our own children she always seemed so proud of the accomplishments that we had and she was always ready to tease me about my youth. I will miss her smile and her support that she gave everytime I saw her. As the saying goes "it takes a villiage to raise a child" Phyllis was part of my village and she will be missed.
