Dear Fred !



I shall miss Phyllis immensely. She had such a unique sense of humor and was such fun. And I shall always remember the muffins she used to bring over the afternoon before we would take a trip, so we could have a quick breakfast before leaving the next morning. She leaves a lasting prescence. I hope all your memories and the comfort of friends eases your way through this difficult time.

Fred, although you and I have known each other for about 50 years, I am sorry to say that I did not have the honor and priveliege of knowing Phyllis over all the years of your marriage. I did have the wonderful occasion to spend a few brief hours and an overnight visit to your and Phyllis' home a couple of years ago. During that visit, although she was then very ill and in obvious discomfort, she never let it for a moment affect her graciousness. Knowing you as I do and having met this wonderful lady, if only for a brief time, I understand why you fell in love and married her. I know the pain of losing her seems unbearable right now, it will get better if you will concentrate on all the good times you shared with her over all those years. God will not give you a bigger load to carry than you are capable of handling. He knows all our strengths and weaknesses and will stand by you. You'll see her again near Gods heavenly throne. May God bring you peace my old friend.

I have known the both of you all my life. Fred, you gave me my first silver cup and my pig teddy bears. Then you met Phyllis, it was a match made in heaven. I communicated with the two of you, and Phil and I would have our “girl talks”. My parents are the best, however, I am the luckiest girl in the world as I have two sets of great parents. Once when I was TDY we visited with each other in Sacramento, what a wonderful time that was. And on and on of the fond and wonderful memories we shared together. You know Fred, I know times are difficult now, however, we are suppose to rejoice that Phil is now in heaven with God, where we will all meet again. Fred, I pray for you and Phyllis, and please know that my heart is with you. We can get through this together. Phil is out of her pain and suffering and watching over us now. I Love You, Fred.

Love Always Steph
