Phyllis was a member of Faith Reformed Church in Cedar Grove. Her faith in Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior was very important to her. She enjoyed gardening, camping, traveling, bird watching, and was a great cook. Phyllis loved pets and spending time with her family.  She made it a priority to attend the many, many music concerts, recitals, school performances and other activities that her grandchildren were involved in.
