    Sorry to see her go but smiles to know Phyllis is basking in the love of her ancestors and her Maker. She has left us all with amazing memories of earlier years. It is good to know she has been freed of her earthly burdens. Now she can concentrate on family. Rest assured she is smiling on all of you and praying for your good health and happiness.

    You were a “main stay” at Simcoe Manor and we talked often in the hallways since 2005. I enjoyed the rapor we developed and when my shift granted me time on Essa….the longevity of getting to know you paid off in “10 fold” when we could spend time together.
