Phyllis is my Aunt and my Dad's brother. My Dad is Jim Wardlow who passed away a short time ago (October 28, 2008). I am one of the "Wardlow Twins" = Gail and Kay Wardlow = I am Kay.
I always loved Phyllis's pretty eyes since they reminded me of my Grandma Wardlow's eyes (her Mom's eyes).
My condolences to all of the Skog family.

Mary, Myra and Jack,
My thoughts and prayers are with you all now and in the future. We were out of town and I am just now reading the obituraries. I would have been there if I had been in town.
I am sorry for your loss and i will fondly remember all the good times we had in Central Gardens...and, Mary, in that little green Volkswagen!! Your Mom was always so sweet and I will always remember her with kind thoughts.

I always enjoyed Aunt Phyliss's visits when I was growing up. She was always sharp, witty and full of love. She was deeply devoted to family. Once, when I grew impatient waiting on mom to cook me breakfast, Phyllis patiently taught me how to fry eggs and take care of myself. Its still the only thing I cook but I do it often and always remember my kind teacher.
