Phyllis resided in Stoddard, NH, for over 60 years and was an avid supporter of her community and Stoddard Congregational Church. Phyllis enjoyed going to the Maine Coast with her family, starting in her younger years, and continued throughout her adult life. She loved walking Marginal Way, a beautiful trail that wanders along the ocean in Ogunquit, ME. Phyllis was full of life. She was fun to be with, upbeat, laughing, playing, and making the best of times with friends and family. She loved spending her winters in Bonita Springs, FL, making many friends while participating in park activities such as softball, horseshoes, fishing, Mardi Gras and karaoke. She truly enjoyed life, especially her beloved Red Sox and has a brick in Fenway Park.
Phyllis was predeceased by her parents; and her brothers: John Sawyer, Hardy Sawyer, and Reginald Sawyer.
She is survived by her companion Karen Cushing and several nieces and nephews.
A graveside service will be held on Friday, July 2, 2021 at 11:00 am at Mountain View Cemetery, off of Main Street in Claremont, NH. There will be balloons at each entrance to the cemetery. A Celebration of Phyllis’ Life will begin that afternoon at 1:00 pm at Karen Cushing’s home, 545 Shedd Hill Road, Stoddard, NH. All who knew Phyllis are welcome to attend.
