Dear Mom,
I'm remembering five years ago today and how cold and treacherous the roads were. We had so much snow the morning of your funeral mass; and yet, so many people traveled to be with us and to honor you. Life is much the same today in some ways, and yet so much different in others. One constant thing that remains is how loved and missed you are by me and so many others.

What an inspiration! The obituary was a great read. Phyllis made the world a better place for sure and after reading those words I am inspired to live life in honor of those wonderful values and traits. I know her family and have always felt good vibes from them. Her light shines through them and anyone else she came into contact with. I know she is smiling down from heaven. Thank you, Phyllis!

Our sincere sympathy to the Connelly family. Though miles apart, we have always cherished our relationship with our cousins in Niles. Phyllis always stayed in touch with my mother, her Aunt Lena, through phone calls and lovely gifts and she so graciously hosted my family during a visit to Ohio. Phyllis and Whitey leave a beautiful legacy of family and friends and are always in our hearts.
