Phyllis Anne Hirsch passed on March 29, 2026, at the age of 85.

Predeceased by her beloved husband of 49 years, Herbert; and her brother, Paul Halpern.

She is survived by her children, Deborah (Anthony) Boyer, and Sue (Robert Surgent) Hirsch; grandchildren, Jennifer (Mark Stowell) Boyer and Jessica Boyer; and sister-in-law, Cindy Halpern.

Phyllis found so much joy in community. For over 20 years, she managed the AMPS Musical Group. She was a member of the Webster Women's Club and was proud of the money they raised for local charity organizations. Phyllis never missed her weekly Starbucks knitting group. She was a joyful, vibrant and kind woman who will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
