Phyllis was born in Boston, MA on March 26, 1930. She grew up in Dorchester and raised her family in Mattapan. Phyllis worked for many years as a bookkeeper and office manager in Boston until she retired and moved to Lake Worth, Florida where she developed many new and cherished friendships and became active in Hadassah and other charitable organizations. After moving back to Boston where she lived for 7 years at Golda Meir House in Auburndale, she again made new friends who became a big part of her life and were very dear to her. Phyllis was an amazing, self-accomplished woman who touched so many lives with her love, kindness, support, loyalty and willingness to help.
