To our always smiling cousin, Phyllis, whom we loved dearly.  From the Morrow Family and cousins Christmas party 2015-16 at Piccolo Venezia restaurant in Astoria, NY.
We will miss you and remember the happiness you gave to everyone.

There is never anything more precious and loving than a close friend who adopts you just because. Phyllis was a reason for my being here today. When my family was being threatened from within by other family members both Phyllis and Bill at Phyllis’s insistence stood shoulder to shoulder with both Nancy and myself, as was her way, and turned away the threat permanently. From then on we had the absolute honor to have her friendship and love ❤️ spanning two decades. In fact I can honestly say that I am the only man Phyllis would and was allowed to dance with at weddings, holiday get together and other wise and she did it because she loved 🥰 to dance and celebrate every day as something special. Always smiling 🙂 and as bright as the morning Sun no matter what. We will miss her more than we can ever express so will the world she leaves behind especially her grandchildren the absolute light of her life. Our sincerest and warmest love ❤️ and condolences. In her memory we will be donating for Thanksgiving and Christmas to United Veterans of Boca Raton a local veterans group of forgotten service men I am a member of and have served with from 1968-1971. She was always a Giving Christian Woman now in the living hands of her God and her loving husband Bill until the 12 th of never and that’s a long long time. Rest in peace you are missed!

Dear Caroline & Donna & families, I'm so sorry to hear about your mom's passing. I would have loved to see & talk with her again, it's been way too long! and how nice it would be to see both of you as well. So many great memories in the early years, when we were all just kids - the good years.  Love to both of you, Theresa xoxo

Dearest Phyllis, what a beautiful lady. You brought the best out of everyone,  made us feel special and had so much love and affection for us all. It was so good to be in your company, we laughed so much when we were together, You had a great love for children, and they, in return adored you. Your card playing, however,  wasn't  the best, we tried to teach you but failed miserably. I know you will be sorely missed by your wonderful daughters, Caroline and Donna, grandsons Matthew and Nicholas, Mirko and Charlie, brothers,sisters, sisters in law, brothers in law ,and friends. So goodbye dear Phyllis, we will miss you so much, our hearts are broken. Xx love Eamon and Angela xx

Phyllis was my friend, confident and like a sister to me.  We laughed,
cried and celebrated so many moments  together.  Although I moved

will miss my friend, but will always have the greatest memories we
shared.  Rest in peace my Irish friend.

My deepest sympathy to Caroline, Donna and her beloved 
grandsons.

Love you forever my Angel!

My deepest condolences to Caroline and family you all are in my prayers. I hope that you will be able to take comfort in your positive memories in this time of mourning.

I just want to say that I will miss  Phyliss   so much.  She was like a second   mom to me.  We kidded around so much.  Just had dinner with her for my birthday. Had a  wonderful time.  But one thing  I can say is that Phyliss has a very big appetite   so  we would  always bet  who could   eat more steak.  Kisses and hugs to the family that took me and my father in like family.    God Bless.     Bobby Navalance

My dear friend Phyllis, you were not just a friend but part of our family. We had such beautiful memories of our trips to California, Las Vegas, and the Bahamas. You attended all family functions, Weddings, Showers, Birthdays, and Baptisms. I will miss our 2+ hours of phone calls. You were such a generous person never thinking of yourself but only others. A great great friend will be sorely missed but welcomed into Heaven you are with God now.

Phyllis will always bring a smile to everyone who has ever had the privilege of crossing her path.  She made everyone feel they were the most important person in the room.  I am heart broken for my loss, but I know my loss is gain for Heaven.  I get a charge thinking of all the angels she has smiling today.  Miss you my friend.

My deepest sympathy to her family.

Get ready Heaven, an angel who defines “the lilt of Irish laughter” will be entering the pearly gates.  Phyllis I will never forget the times we spent together.  Those nine holes filled with lots of giggling and your magical 6 iron!  Dinner always followed with warm conversation and more laughs.  We will always think of you with a smile and thank God that we were honored to know you.  Our sympathy and prayers for your family.  Our hearts hurt for your great loss.

Death leaves a heartache no one can  heal.  Love leaves a memory no one can steal. We were so sorry to hear of your loss. May your sorrow’s be softened with happy memories.

Phyllis will be sorely missed. She played in our Monday golf group. Without effort she kept us all in stitches.  Her Irish wit and love  of her culture was always alive and present.  RIP my friend. Dottie Provenzano 

I will always remember your smile and laughter,  and how it would light up the room.  There are too many memories to share, but every time we were together, whether playing golf,  celebrating birthdays, having dinner or lunch, you made everyone feel special with your warm and loving way.  Phyllis you will be missed by everyone who had the privilege to be called your friend. You will be missed,  but never forgotten.    Rest In Peace my friend.

Condolences, thoughts, and prayers to your daughters, Caroline and Donna, and the rest of your family.

My best buddy, Phyllis, life has changed without you. You meant so very much to me. You were always there when I needed you. Selfless beyond words. 
I remember the first day. I met you. I heard you talking in the dining room of our club and listened to the Irish accent, so I said I have to meet this girl, so I ran up to you when you were walking home and introduced myself, and from then on, we were inseparable. 
May God hold you in the palm of his hands.
                                                      Karen ☘️  





My first woman’s scramble at Southwinds, July, 2021, she made a lasting impression and we formed a wonderful friendship/bond. It’ll be difficult to play golf on the courses we played without Phyllis there with her positive attitude, encouraging comments and infectious laugh. RIP my Dear Friend till we meet again; May God hold you in the palm of his hand. 💚

She will be very missed
She was just a wonderful person and I am so sorry for your loss
Always happy, fun to be with
