To Phyllis's family: I am so sorry to learn of her death. She was always so lively and active - and a wonderful friend. I will miss her, but I will have a lot of happy memories of her. Ann Campbell

I am beyond heart broken to hear about Aunt Phyllis. I so enjoyed our phone visits and she just had a way about her that would always make you happy just to hear her voice. I treasure every moment that I got to visit with her. She had a genuine love of life and her family was the most important thing to her. Even though we were late getting connected, she made me feel as if we were never apart. I thank God for Kathy who found me on Cousins Day. I had not seen nor had any contact since I was 6 years old. I feel priviledged to be apart of the Hesterly bunch. I love you Aunt Phyllis and I will see you again one day.

PJ always had a sparkle to her. There were some from her eyes - she noticed so many things. There were some from her heart - loving the Lord and on others, noticing beauty around her. There were some from her mind - "seeing" the best in people, helping people know they are valued. There were some from her lips - her infectious smile and her wonderful giggle - like music to my ears. Her inward beauty shone to each person she encountered - whether she knew them or not. You will be missed PJ, but not forgotten.
