Phyllis was a wonderful person. She was a great conversationalist. She always listened to what the other person had to say. She and Herb schlepped to Carbondale Illinois for all three of our sons bar mitzvahs. She will really be missed.

Phyllis was smart and had a love of life. She was cheerful and energetic except for the last 6 months when she began getting ill and her hip replacement years ago. In the hospital, with her only means of communication on a notepad, she said she wanted us to tell her jokes so she could die laughing. I asked her if she meant it and she shook her head yes. With all her family around her, we told some jokes and she laughed. Friends and relatives were called on speaker phone and talked to her and we relayed her responses on the speaker. She told family history stories. She was quite lucid, then they took her off the breathing apparatus and she eventually slept. They adjusted her meds so she was breathing on her own comfortably. We made sure she was never alone and we were present when she passed peacefully, as she had wished. She was the most noble, gracious and dignified of anyone I saw in their last moments, as was her beloved husband, Herb ז״ל of blessed memory. We will all miss her.
