I stand with the entire Barrett family in their loss of their positive, thoughtful and considerate Matriarch. Phyllis always made me feel so welcome and accepted, especially at Pesach. Such a pleasure to be with, I can hear her hearty laugh even now. I love you, Phyllis.

Mrs. Barrett was my very best childhood friends,(Jeff Barrett)mom.She always treated me with great kindness as did her entire family. I hope the pain of this loss does not linger too long for those that must carry on. A kinder woman I never knew. She made me feel welcome in her home, and that in it of itself shows a human sensitivity with great great compassion. She will forever be in my daily prayers. Louis Anthony DeRosa Jr.
