Phyllis enjoyed serving others along with her church family. She was an accomplished seamstress and avid baker. She loved nothing more than making wedding and birthday cakes for friends and family. Her pumpkin rolls were wildly sought after. She enjoyed quilting with her friends and church ladies. Phyllis was an excellent cook and catered many events. There weren’t many crafty things she couldn’t do including flower arrangements. She was a devoted wife, mother and sister who greatly enjoyed traveling and spending time with her loved ones. She will be sorely missed.

In lieu of flowers her family asks that donations be made to the

Camp Victory Camper Scholarship Fund

Or

Pinelake Fellowship Camp Scholarship Fund
