I am so very sorry to read about Phillis. I didn't know she was ill. When I worked with my husband at our BP station in Ferriday she would come in and sit and chat with me while Bill worked on her vehicle. When I retired a couple of years ago she gave me a beautiful candle holder as a retirement gift. She was a very special person. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Bro. Paul and the rest of her family at this time of sorrow. May she rest in peace.
