Dear Vince, Todd and Clay,

I was deeply saddened to hear about your loss, I am late by few years. Better late than never. I wanted to share a memory of the times I met Phyllis at Steve´s house. Although I only had the pleasure of meeting Phyllis twice, those encounters left a lasting impression on me.

Phyllis had a wonderful sense of humor that resonated perfectly with my English sensibilities, bringing a smile to my face even now as I think about those moments. Once met, never forgotten.

Please accept my heartfelt condolences.

With sympathy,
