I worked with Phyllis at Remington. she was such a sweetheart. everyone loved her. prayers for the family.
I’ve only known Phyliss for a couple of years. Bill and visited often and enjoyed our time with her. We will miss her. Prayers for the family.
Love and hugs to all you. Wish we were there with you. I hope there is a Dillards in heaven! Phyllis did LOVE to shop. I remember many trips Bill and Phyllis took to Iowa. For Phyllis, most of those included a trip to Amana to the woolen mills. Phyllis and I always had so much to talk about. It is never easy to lose those we love. It is difficult to watch our families get smaller and smaller. I hope good memories will give you strength. Love Always!
