We were saddened to learn of Phyllis' passing. We were friends and fellow congregants of Moses Montifiore. Phyllis always had a smile and enjoyed a good joke. She was fun to be around and will be missed. We always teased her about being Jerome Silbermans' (Gene Wilder) girlfriend at her 16th birthday party in Milwaukee!
Her kind, sweet nature will be remembered.

I am saddened to hear of Phyllis' passing. She was our neighbor when I was a child. We were fortunate to run into her about a year and a half ago at Mary's Restaurant. She joined us for supper and we drove her back to her house and visited. I'm glad we got that time to catch up with her.
My sympathies to her family.

What a wonderful woman and neighbor ! The Golpers were so VERY kind and generous. I remember Phyllis hiring my brother and me to shovel snow many years ago. Rest in peace, Mrs Golper.

My dad was both friends and business associates with Leo and both Leo and Phyllis were kind and generous people. We often spent time at their home on Pershing St. visiting and dad being the handyman he was fixing things inside their home. Over the years after Leo passed I would run into Phyliss when out shopping and she remembered me from when I was a young girl. When Leo came to my husband's place of employment he always made sure to stop and talk with him, seeing he knew that he was Don Blohm's son-in-law. Prayers to the Golper boys and their families. RIP Phyllis

Phyllis and Leo were two of the finest we met while owning Abbey Carpet in Appleton. The world has lost a fine person in Phyllis, but now she and Leo are together again and heaven has added another angel.
