After graduation, Phyllis worked at REMC in Warsaw, IN until March 11, 1951 when she married the love of her life, Robert W. "Bob" Wuethrich in Milford. They celebrated 72 years of marriage before he passed away on May 7, 2023. Phyllis and Bob spent the first two years of their marriage in service to the US Army stationed at Ft.
