Hi,

I won't keep you long, I don't like funerals either. I just want to share with you all that I have had such a blessed and miraculous life. I have had the pleasure of being loved by three men, along with my son Jay. My first husband Chris and I were only together a few short years. We were both young and shared many firsts. He gave me my Karen. My second love was Bud. Just think of all those women in San Francisco, California and this man chose me. "He chased me until I caught him." He gave me quite the proposal too. He said, "Well are you going to New Mexico with me or not?" I didn't even know what or where New Mexico even was. I sure did follow him there and was blessed with a wonderful family and community. God blessed Bud and I with 65 wonderful years together. We had three children, Jay being our first. We later lost two children. I also enjoyed nearly 40 years with my bowling team and many years with the Desert Cruisers Car Club. I truly appreciate the friendships I gained in my team and club. My third love is my continued love affair with Jesus Christ. "Best decision I have ever made!" I do not know a gentle way to say this but if you have not yet done the same for yourself, you better do it now.

God bless you and I love you all.

Love, Phyllis Queener.
