Deepest sympathies to the whole family. We visited Phyllis and Gordon over several Christmases when I lived in Canda and I always remember their generosity. With best wishes.

I feel shocked and saddened by this news, and want to send my sincerest and warmest condolences to all the family.
I will always remember your laugh and how you told so many funny stories in your lively way, Your generosity towards me, was awesome, and how when I arrived in Canada you supported me so much more than you will ever know and you made me feel that sunshine had come back into my branch of the family. I love you like a ''second mom''. Carolyn (London)

Dear Phyllis,my very good friend and neighbour. So many times this is how it would go. I would phone and say "want some company Phyllis" Oh yes you'd reply.Then I'd knock on your door and hear you call out ,come on in. I've just made a cup of tea do you want one.Then out would come the cookies and we'd have a real old 'gab'. Oh Phyllis I will miss you so much . Much love Sally
