She was born in Hampden Highlands, on the family farm, one of 12 children, on April 23, 1925, the daughter of Lillian B. (Condon) Cobb and Wilbur R. Cobb. Phyllis enjoyed working in her gardens, dancing, and sewing her many crazy quilts for family and friends. She also enjoyed collecting stamps, antique buttons, embroidery, driving, trips to the ocean, and she liked to speak her mind! Phyllis was always concerned about other people, helping when need be.

Toothaker. Surviving are five children, Sandra Nealley, Beverly Porter, Roger Toothaker and his wife, Jenny, Golda Toothaker, and Vernon L. Toothaker; eight grandchildren, Lori, Sonya, Mike, Lisa, Roger Jr., Raymond, Charity, and Joni; as well as many great-grandchildren and great-great-grandchildren; a brother, Ralph Cobb; and several nieces and nephews. Special thank you to the nurses from Beacon Hospice and Home Care for the wonderful care and her granddaughter, Sonya.
