We were so sorry to hear of Phyllis' passing. She was a wonderful lady. She had a way of starting a conversation with anyone, anywhere. She was always happy and had such a wonderful laugh. She will surely be missed. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Grandma, what I remember most is her love for conversation. She could talk to anyone about pretty much anything. She always had a upbeat personality and a smile on her face. Geography prevented a closer relationship but when you got together she would make up for lost time. She loved life and from what I know lived it to the fulliest. She will be mist tremendously.
Love Robert
