The light in our family dimmed yesterday as we said good-bye to our beloved Mum-Nana. Phyllis died in the early hours of Thursday, September 20, 2018 just weeks away from her ninety-eighth birthday. She showed us how to live life to the fullest. She always looked to the future, taking the lessons from her past with her but never letting them hold her back. Her love of clothes, cars, food and flying were legendary. She reminded us every day that life was precious and we were meant to live every moment. To do less was not acceptable. Tenacious, defiant, loving, classy- she was a finely woven tapestry of what it takes to live until you are done living. With tears in our eyes and her spirit deep in our hearts, we say good-bye.
With immense gratitude, we thank Dr. Ruth Turnbull, the staff at Augustine House, Dr. Gemeinhardt and the staff at KinVillage for the kindness and care each of you gave to Phyllis. Her last years were eased because of you.
Mum requested that there be no memorial service so we would ask that you take a moment to remember her and notice the new star in the night sky.
You are invited to leave a personal message of condolence for the family.
Nos plus sincères sympathies à la famille et aux amis de Phyllis Smyth September 20th 2018..
