Mr Web and Web Jr, the last time I talked to Phyllis was a couple of years ago when my dad (Tiger Jones) stopped by her house to see her before we went to see my sister Chyanna play softball over in Front Royal, of course Tiger and Phyllis talked of the old times and memories of us,and the Winchester folks, when we were young, she was fun and will be sadly missed by all that knew her, Tiger's son, Bugs

Dear Family,

I grew up with Phyllis, her and My Mom Rosetta were best friends and she was my father's cousin. When Yolanda was born she named her after me I'm Rolanda and she's Yolanda and at that point I never had a sister and well Phyllis blessed me with a godsister and my mom another daughter. Then my babygirl Tia spoiled rotten she was not going very far from Mom and Dad's Smiles. Then mom called and say guess what Phyllis had another girl named Casey you have another sister. I could go on for days down memory lane to my wonderful cousin and auntie Phyllis may you RIP tell RoRo and Daddy Chummy what up I am going to miss you.

Much Love,
Rolanda Jackson-Lattimore

To the family of Phyllis Washington Smith, I was one of the graduates in the class of '66. I spoke to Phyllis about a month ago and it was such a joy to speak with her. My sister Denise Henry use to live across the street from you all. I'm sorry for your loss and that I'm unable to be there. My prayer is that God will give you the strength to get through this and that the handkerchief of wisdom will wipe the tears from you eyes. God bless you all. Gretchen Weaver Bell.

Mr. Web, Karline, Web and the family, my prayers are with you during this time of loss. I will always remember our trips to the beach, the dinners at the little house down the hill and the times we talked our dads into letting or should I say taking us to a party at Ms Marcus's house. When I think of those times I will have a smile on my face like Phyllis always did.
