Phyllis came into my life when I married my love Albert who was a longtime friend of her love Ronald.
She embraced us and made us a part of the family. She never tired of backyard picnics and shared family events. So many stories shared but best of all her riotous laughter never faded. Phyllis lived her Christian faith being the hands and feet of Jesus. You leave a great legacy Phyllis;3 beautiful children and 6 grandchildren who were so loved by you. We will all miss you as you dance and laugh in heaven.
