She attended Braman Schools. Phyllis loved to go camping,swimming, to basketball games and she loved her wrestlers who she said protected her. She always looked forward to Teresa taking her to Branson to see Elvis who she loved. For her 50th birthday she visited Graceland. Her hobbies were coloring, and drawing. Her contagious sweet smile would light up the room. If you needed a back rub everyone knew who to go to, hers were the best. Oh and the bear hugs, if you got a hug hang on cause she meant those hugs with all her heart. Phyllis was the most caring loving soul you would ever meet. She was an Angel sent from Heaven, cherished and adored her whole life, as an Angel should be. God knew what he was doing when he sent her to us. She never met a stranger and would never forget a name. Phyllis was part of the Opportunity Center Family where she worked and loved the people she worked with.
