So sorry for your loss. But we can be sure Phyllis is in a better place with her Lord. Marilyn and I have very fond memories of Phyllis and Dan while we attended the Forrest Home Church of the Nazarene in our years from 2011 and 2015. We wish we could attend but of course it's just a little far for us to make it. We wish to let Dan and his family know we will be thinking and praying for them.
Ms Phyllis will forever be remembered by the smile on her face, her beautiful laugh, and how precious she treated everyone. Continued prayers for the family.
Phyllis was such a sweet, dear lady. She was funny, spunky, full of laughter, dedicated and faithful to her calling in Christ. She has already been ushered into the presence of her savior and Lord Jesus Christ! Her family will shed many tears for the loss of her physical presence here on earth! The loss of your wife, mother & grandma is going to pierce your heart and soul for some time. I pray God’s peace would comfort you during this time.
Danny, God bless you and the girls. Had no knowledge of Phyllis being ill. May God give you comfort and peace.
I was so blessed to work with Phyllis during my time as Minister of Music there at Forest Home. What a truly wonderful friend and coworker. It was a joy serving with her. I will always remember the day the squirrel got loose in the church and her part in it!
One of the purest hearts and so much fun to be around! Her faith was an example to all to strive for
My condolences to the family. Phyllis was a very kind and caring person. I know she will be missed, but I also know where she is.
So sorry for your loss
