Mrs. Phyllis Ann Caneva

On Phyllis anniversary, her life and works leave an inspiration for everyone who knew her. Sympathy to the family, Mary Ann Murphy of Lockport, Illinois

Phyllis was such a light in my life growing up. Whenever I needed another Mom, or even when I didn't think I did, she was always there with some clever thing to say that put things in perspective or validate my feelings. Either that or she make me go down to the basement and play the organ really loud. Always made me happy when I'd see her as we all grew older. Thanks for always giving me a place to land, Mrs. C. Peace, Light, and so much Love.

Dear Reno, we wish to extend our sincere condolences to you and your family for

the loss of your beloved wife.

Our thoughs are with you during your difficult times und we wish

to express our sincere condolences.

Please accept our condolences during your time of loss.

Yours sincerely

Gabriele and Joachim Völkl

Dear Reno, dear daughters and sons, dear big family of Phyllis and Reno, Wolfgang and me feel very sorry, that Phyllis has gone. Its a pity, that she no longer can live with all of you! Tina wrote me about her desease and her sufferings, at least all of us can be glad, that she didnt had to suffer for a very long time and that she hat not to stand bad and long lasting pains! We remember very well the great Caneva - Gathering some years ago, when we met in Gräfelfing and Phyllis and me played harp and flute. We had a very nice evening in our garden and were happy! Thats a good remberance - so let it be!
Best regards to all of you, especially to you, dear Reno!

To The Phyliss Caneva Family Sorry For Your Loss Respectfully Yours, The Gary Darin Family

deepest sympathies

On behalf of the Joliet Area Theatre Organ Enthusiasts, please accept our prayers for peace and comfort. The Caneva's were very generous in sharing their talents and their Wurlitzer theatre pipe organ with fellow enthusiasts.

We were very sorry indeed to hear of Phyllis`sudden death. We knew her as the most kind-hearted and generous person and it was always a great pleasure to be together with her and her great family and her harp in Lockport or in some locations around the world.
She was amazing!
We know there is little one can say at times like this to alleviate the grief that bereavement causes but after Phyllis`serious illness her passing away must have come as a release from pain and suffering.
Please accept our sincere sympathy.
God bless you all .
We send all our love
Hubert and Ilse, Angelika with family

Reno, you and Phyllis have such a wonderful family. I know you will all miss her deeply.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

I'll never forget the progressive dinner we did in Scouts. It was so much fun! Prayers to family.

Phyllis grew up with my late husband, Norm "Corky" Seaborg. Their mothers, both named Agnes, were good friends. I have known her ever since living in Lockport and the world will be a lesser place without her. She had a way of lighting up a room when she walked into it and I never met anyone who did not like her. My thoughts and prayers are with Reno and her family. Heaven inherited a beautiful angel that will watch over all of us. God Bless!

Sending love to the entire Caneva family

What a beautiful video capturing her life so sweetly. She lives on in her children, grandchildren, and those she touched through her service to others. Great will be her rewards in heaven.

The love you shared goes on untouched by time.
My sincere sympathy. Mary Ellen

My deepest sympathies to the family.

I am so sorry for the loss of Phyllis. As a life long member of Shepherd of the Hill, I remember her when I was a child. What a kind beautiful person she was! We are all so blessed to have known her and hear her music being played, especially the harp. My thoughts and prayers are with the family during this time. She will be missed by her church family and all that knew her.

We met Phyllis & Family at Shephard of the Hill Church she & they quitckly became beloved family friends, whom we all love. Phyllis will always hold a very special place in our hearts & will be missed. more than I can say.in words. We are fortunate enough to have created a wealth of memories with Phyllis... There was church of coarse, Ruth Circle, choir, swimming at her house & many family gatherings. We loved her, her bubbly, vivacious personality & her daring strength to be different.. riding her skooter around town and the like. We all will miss the beautiful music she shared with everyone here on earth. Although, we are sure it will only have served as a preview of what her musical accomplishments in Heaven will be. Our condolences to the family, should you need anything, please let us know. We are here for you now & later, any time you may have our help

Dorothy, Reno & Family: I am so sorry for your loss. I only met Phyllis a few times, but knew she was a special lady. You are all in my prayers.

My deepest sympathy to Phyllis's family and friends. I knew her from LCR and Eat, Pray, Love fellowship. She was a wonderful lady, kind and caring. She talked about music and she is sharing her gifts in heaven. Peace to you all. Linda Shaw

Phyllis will be greatly missed by her church friends down here in Cocoa Beach. She told us she learned to play the harp because that's the instrument that the heavenly angels play, and she wanted to be prepared!

I WAS RAISED IN THE SAME NEIGHBORHOOD AS PHYLLIS AND KNEW HER FROM CHILDHOOD. HER FAMILY IS ALSO KNOWN TO ME. SHE WAS A WONDERFUL PERSON AS IS HER FAMILY. SHE WAS A VIBRANT PERSON AND I ALSO WENT TO ISU. SHE WILL BE GREATLY MISSED AND A PART OF LOCKPORT HAS LEFT WITH HER PASSING. MY SYMPATHY TO YOU AND YOURS ON THIS SAD OCCASION, MARY ANN MURPHY

Our deepest Sympathy goes out to the Caneva Family. We have a heavy heart when we realize that we will never see our friend Phyllis again.
With all that said, we all have many great memories that will be with us. We are so lucky and thankful that our paths crossed in Cocoa Beach, FL.
Rest in Peace Phyllis.
With Love Ron & Joyce
