The Bastians loved Phyllis! She was a near friend and a special daughter of God. She was one of Heavenly Father's very best! She'll be a great addition to Heavenly Father's family. Give her a special shout of praise and tender love.

I remember Mrs. Bowman from the early seventies when I attended high school. She use to come to Jerry's and my wrestling matches. I have a visual memory of her and my own mother sitting together in the bleachers.

Unfortunately, I couldn't make it to the services held for her on Monday. However, I would like to offer the family my condolences.

Condolences from the Marsh family. Sister Bowman was always so positive and had an infectious laugh.

Phyllis is a breath of sunshine and makes you laugh! I am very happy that I got to rub shoulders with her and Bill as a Dance 101 student, work-study student in the B.S.U. P.E. department, and as their fellow ward member in the L.D.S. Church.
See you and Bill sometime in the future Phyllis. We love you, and will miss you in the mean-time!

Phyllis was one remarkable lady. She will be missed and she will be remembered. She left a remarkable legacy and an incredible family.

For a gal who came from an obscure corner of the world (Almo, Idaho), she certainly left her mark. She left the world better than she found it. Glad we could be part of her circle of friends.

May God bless all her family; and may they emulate her valiant example of being the best you can be.

We invite God to bless all of you in this hour of loss and sorrow.
