Ed and Family, Our deepest sympathy to you on the loss of your loved one Phyllis. We have not seen her in many years since you left the Rhode Island area. I remember her when I was a little girl as a warm and compassionate person that my mom and grandmother admired. They are all gone now also. May they all meet at the pearly gates of heaven. May Phyllis rest in the peace of the Lord.
