Just like Sue, I met Phyllis while a rookie at Wright & Company. We sat across from each other and seemed to talk the day away. When it was Monday Tour, she and I would get into Maxine's blue Cadillac and walk our ways through peninsula homes, having some laughs and challenging each other on price. Phyllis was the leader, always with something brilliant to say along with her contagious smile. I learned to love real estate thanks to her. She was a natural.
Her family was always most important to her. She made sure everyone got together and loved her children and grandchildren. No matter what was going on, she and Lane were there to support and help whatever that took.
Speaking of Lane, he was her hero. Devoted to her needs and desires, always wanting to make sure that Phyllis was happy. She survived as long as she did because she knew he was never far away and would never let her down. They were a great team - lovers, partners and friends.
No matter how hard she played the game of business, she was a softy at heart and had a soft sentimental side to her that drew us in and turned us into fans.
My children loved her too and we all have special memories of time with Phyllis in her beautiful home in the valley. We will miss her.
The angels will take care of her now and those she left behind have loads of good stories to keep her in our hearts.
Fare thee well my friend,
Ruth Meehan
I've considered Phyllis my best friend for more than half a century. We met at Wright & Co. in Menlo Park when she arrived at a Monday morning office meeting in a zip up house coat, a metal rod running up her back which supported a metal band encircling her head - the result of a fall from her horse. This was around 1972. Months later she invited my husband, Fred, and me to her wedding to Lane in Lake Tahoe. We had become friendly by then and I knew she had doubts about the longevity of the marriage. Lane changed her mind.
Forward to today: It's a whole new world and it's less bright without my best friend, Phyllis. I'm looking forward to seeing her again. I will miss you, Phyllis, until then. I wish peace and love to Lane and all of Phyllis' family.

Dear family of Phyllis,
Please except our condolences. We have been neighbors for many years and loved seeing Phyllis walking Holt Road & working out @ the gym River Ranch. Always so serious about her fitness. Loved it !!! She will be missed.
God Bless

Dear Lane and family: I am so sorry to hear the news about your beloved Phyllis. I know that she was such an important person in your family. I know that you will miss her smile and her love. I hope that time will heal the sorrow and that you can move forward always keeping her energy with you in your heart. I could feel her energy in the Menlo Park condo as I helped Lane remodel it for the family's future well being. Susan Knight
