Hello to the family of Phyllis and goodbye to you Phyllis. I had dinner(s) with you during our November 2008 Thanksgiving in Seneca. I enjoyed talking with you then and also numerous other occasions over the years. I know my mother and father will miss you as well.
Wishing the family well in these times and hope for the best.
Love, Cory (Shelly) Duncan
I was very sorry to read of Phyllis’s passing. I worked with Phyllis at the Super 8 res center. I remember she always came to work with a smile on her face and she loved to talk about her family. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Tracy Berg
