Every year at this time of the year I remember my time with Phyllis and Trevor.

Well, another year has gone by, and you are up there basking in the light of His face and enjoying His upfront and personal presence. I am so glad that He allowed us to connect my dear cousin again. It may not have been for a long time, but it was long enough for both of us to get to know each other. You told me so much about my life, as a child, that I did not know about before I came to visit you. I remember this day and date every year. But this year the page sent me a remembrance e-mail. With love and affection always,
Cousin Joyce.

My wife Ann and I never had the pleasure of meeting Phyllis,but we feel that we know her just having Joyce , her cousin , keeping us informed about her and her struggle. 
Our Father God certainly knows her and is keeping her with him until that wonderful day of our Savior Jesus'return.  
What a joy that will be when Phyllis and all of us are reunited again, this time forever. To Joyce and all the family, we pray that God comforts you with that knowledge.
Alwaid and Ann Johnson

Although I never met Phyllis, I thought I knew her pretty well from the way Joyce would talk about her.  Then when Joyce spent time with her we got to know her better, even in her last days.  Blossom, as I had heard her called until recently sounded like a lady who would help anyone in need.  She sounded like a lady who loved her God more than anything in the world.  I pray our Lord holds her tight in His loving hands and gives her family peace and strength during this time of grief.  May He also watch over Phyllis's family and guide them along His path.  All this in the name of Jesus Christ.  Amen

It was a chance meeting when I met Phyllis several years ago at a garden center that became a focal point in our lives, besides an everyday normal relationship.

I will especially treasure the memories of the quality times we shared gardening and appreciating God's creation, each Spring, Summer, and Fall when life is renewed, and the flowers are in their full splendor.

To the family:  Grieving  is natural, but think of your loved-one as a vibrant rose whose scent never evaporates. Be consoled by the pleasant memories you shared, and also be assured that your separation is temporary.  She is resting peacefully, no more pain or sorrow.

Please accept my condolence.

An auntie is a gift whose worth cannot be measured except by the heart. 

You were a wonderful courage woman and I couldn't have asked for a more loving auntie. 

Rest in peace auntie Blossom, until we meet again, you're forever in my heart your loving niece Gemma xxx

So sorry for the family's loss. Thank God she is Heaven with HIM NOW and she has no pain, so illness! She is whole and praising our dear Lord!!

As we grieve with heavy hearts and much tears, let's all find comfort in our own special precious memories of Phyllis - for as long as we are present in the "here". Phyllis is now our precious Angel, watching over each of our shoulders until we meet again in another realm. With deepest condolences and sympathy to family and friends as we each treasure in our hearts precious moments and memories of our Angel, Phyllis.

It was wonderful to be with from November to March of 2015.  It was an honor serving you.  God brought us back together again.  I love and will always miss you.

It was wonderful to spend November to March with you my dearest cousin.  I was an honor to serve you.  You are now experiencing all that God's people look forward to experiencing.  Joyce Gerald (Cousin-Stanford Alexander Ffrench's daughter)

My Dearest Sweet Pea,
Thank you for sharing your friendship with us and allowing us to pray with you and love you. We will always cherish and remember your kind tender heart.
