Phyllis was born June 1, 1930 in Rocky Ford, CO. to Weldon and Ruby Moss. She grew up on the family farm near Yoder, CO. and moved to the city after high school.

Phyllis attended Blair Business College and was hired as an administrative assistant by Universal Electric. It was there that she met Eldon Berry. They married in September, 1950, a union that lasted until her death.

In 1955, Phyllis and Eldon were among the first to buy a home in Security. They have lived in that home since. Phyllis was a teacher's aide at South Security Elementary for many years.
