Once retired, she became busier than when she worked by spending time with friends in Minnesota and Arizona, crafting, decorating, and traveling. She was an amazing mother, and friend that was always willing to help others. She amassed a shoe collection that could allow her to wear a different pair of adorable shoes every day for nearly a year. She loved spending time with her family, friends, and taking very good care of her dog. It was common for Phyllis to show up to an event with her dog in a stroller so the dog could be there too.
