Darlene and family, I am so sorry to hear about your mother passing on. Growing up on Deerfield road we had our share of fights but we also have some good memories. I do remember your mother being a very caring and loving person who was always available to help another neighbor. I am sure that she will be very much missed by all who knew and loved her. May God give you all peace and comfort during this difficult time. Sally Gibson Spangler, Tulsa, Oklahoma

I will always cherish the fond memories that Miss Phyllis left in my heart(Our neighborhood Mom). From her magical coffee to her after school dough dodgers to playing Zonk with Berty and I. She was always there for me when I needed her and treated me like one of her own. I love you precious angel, now you are with my mama. <3 God Bless to the family and I love you Fuzz <3
