I miss you mom

Posted by: Ken Hopper - Las Vegas, NV - Stepson Sep 13, 2014

Condolences to the passing of my friend's Mom. I personally did not know of Phyllis, but if it is any consolation, her daughter Annette bears her resemblance and turned out to be a fine human being. Reflecting on the epitaph that is mentioned on this memorial site, Annette most assuredly bears much of her Mother's gifts. I know that those who will know Phyllis, will know her as I know Annette. God Bless your family in this time of passing. Your tremendous loss is Heaven's tremendous gain. She is home...

I will truly miss you , our talks, our gossip, your caring ways of always calling when Iowa would make the national news to make sure we were ok. You were genuine and true, you said what you thought, usually in a funny way. You were my favorite aunt, even though we shared no blood. I will always remember meeting up with you in Vegas, the fun we had, the buffets, the revaluation about the "Hit Man" and the shock
