Keith, I just wanted to express my condolences again on this anniversary of the death of your wife, Phyllis. I only met her a few times when you owned Photo Emporium at 48th & Chicago. I enjoyed hanging around your store and appreciate what you taught me about photography. I hope you are doing okay.

Words can't express how sad I am that I lost my best friend my mom. But she wouldn't have left me unless she knew I was strong enough to handle this. A daughter losing her mother is one of the hardest things a woman could ever go through. My mother was the strongest woman I know and I feel she gave me that same strength and I hope that everything I do in my life she will be proud of. I know that having someone special to spend my life with was important to her and she may have never met David but she at least had the peace of knowing I am happy with him :) I love you Mom and you will be in my thoughts each and everyday.

When we needed volunteers, Phyllis was first to respond. She was the one we could count on. We are so, so sorry for your loss. We are thankful she was in this place so that we would know her. Our world will be void without her smiling face.

Keith,
The news about Phyllis took me by surprise, I'm so sorry for you and your family. I admired Phyllis so much. She was such a strong independent woman, and she really showed me by example that there is a place for women in the car clubs. We will all miss her so much!

Keith, Phillip, Brian, Stephanie and extended family-- I am so very sorry for the loss you are faced with. I pray for strength, comfort, hope and healing for all of you. I only spent a short time with her when she'd come see Phillip at the house (like the time our basement flooded while PJ was in Iraq) but even then, I could see who she was. I hugged her the first time we met. Our whole Adams Street gang loves Phillip and is thinking of all of you. God Bless.

Keith, I am so sorry for your loss. I remember Phyllis only from the times she would stop by the camera shop on 48th & Chicago while I was hanging around. Brian was still quite young at that time. I lost my wife to cancer 2-1/2 years ago.
