She was born on January 6, 1942, to the late Philip Fazzari and Francesca Facciolo Vavala Fazzari in Wilmington, DE.
Phyllis worked in retail for JCPenney for over 40 years. She loved spending time on her deck enjoying the sun and her flowers, travelling, riding rides at amusement parks and seeing shows on Broadway. More than anything though she loved making memories with her friends and family.
She is survived by her husband of 63 years, William Muzzi, Sr. son, William Muzzi, Jr,(Lauren Boder), grandchildren, Meghan Thompson (Peter), William Muzzi, III, and Justin Muzzi (Carly Costello). She is also survived by her niece, Stephanie Tolson and her children, Ash and Reagan Tolson and her sisters, Theresa Olszewski (Ed), Nancy Johnson, Mary Fitzpatrick and Charlene Mazzarelli (Carl), as well as a multitude of family and friends who love her dearly.
Per Phyllis' wishes no services will be held.

I worked with Phyllis at Braunstein´s in Prices Corner in the late 70´s! She was one of the kindest, sweetest woman I have ever known. When she went on to work at JCPenney, I loved to stop in to see her. She was always interested in my teaching career and then my children. I have so many great memories of her. Please know I extend my sincere condolences to all her family and friends.
