Phyllis A. Bennett, age 91, of The Villages, Florida passed away on February 6, 2024. She was born in Sylvan, Wisconsin to the late Garrett and Zelpha (Hoadley) Deckert.
Phyllis grew up on a farm in Wisconsin, married the love of her life Bruce and then moved to Middleton, where they established and ran a successful Amoco business together. Phyllis enjoyed engaging with and teaching her daughters along with many nieces, nephews, neighbor children and grandsons card games, treasure hunts and sports. A good laugh, a little teasing and humor would brighten Phyllis’ day. She excelled in bowling, softball and golf. She and Bruce traveled with friends prior to retiring to Arkansas, where Phyllis collected five holes-in-one. Phyllis returned to Wisconsin to be close to family and continued to enjoy golf. The past few years have been spent in Florida near her daughter and grandchildren enjoying the warm weather. She did not miss the snow.
