Phyllis Weiss Obituary

Phyllis (Aftel) Weiss, loving mother and devoted MeeMaw, passed away on June 18, 2023, at the age of 77. She was the light of her family's life. Phyllis was born on April 15, 1946, and lived a full life, filled with love, joy, and laughter.

She was preceded in death by her husband Bernie, but she continued to live life to the fullest, cherishing every moment with her loved ones. Phyllis leaves behind two children, Amy and Sam (Sharon), and three grandchildren, Ashley, Sam, and Zack, who were the absolute joy of her life.

She will be remembered as a loving and devoted mother, MeeMaw, and friend to all whose lives she touched.

The family would like to extend their gratitude to the staff of Legacy Hospice for their care and compassion during this difficult time.

In lieu of services, memorial donations can be made to the National Kidney Foundation or The Alzheimer's Association. Phyllis will be dearly missed and forever in our hearts.
