She was a grand lady and I will always remember the way she laughed with she sister when they recalled memories of growing up. They all had such great laughs and made me want to laugh with them. Am so sorry I cannot be there. I am fighting a cold and don't want to share it. Love to all the cousins and rest of the family. Sincerely

My parents purchased season tickets to Husker football games in 1963. We were fortunate enough to be seated adjacent to Tom and Phyllis.

We got to know them well over the years. It wasn´t game day until they arrived and took their seats.

On several occasions my dad the opportunity to get `better´ seats but we talked it over and didn´t change seats because we didn´t want to move away from Tom and Phyllis.

Tom and Phyllis were a great pair. Smiles and laughs and fun all around no matter what the score was.

I´m sure they have good seats in Heaven.

Phyllis will be missed!
She always was so welcoming to me and then to Rafael. I loved hearing her stories, and visiting her and Elizabeth.
We love you Brusnahans!
