    Phyllis was a great friend and you always knew she was around because she had an infectious laugh and was always upbeat. We were fortunate to meet Phyllis and Don when we were members of the John Deimer Bridge Club for about 40 years.

    We will miss Phyllis and she will be missed by her family and everyone who knew her.

    Pat & Bob Pfeiffer
