Obituary for Phyllis Ruth Parsons
Phyllis Ruth Parsons
Sept. 1, 1930 - Feb. 17, 2017
It is with great sadness that the family of the late Phyllis Ruth Parsons announce her passing at the Miller Centre, St. John’s on February 17/17 at the age of 86 years.
Phyllis is predeceased by her husband Harold Winston David Parsons; her father Cecil Short; mother Beatrice Short (nee Cole); sister Doris Hiscock; brother Edwin Short and granddaughter Chantelle Parsons.
Her life is being lovingly celebrated by her five children-Mary Spencer (Brian) of Springdale, June Pollett (Willie) of St. John’s, Peter Parsons of Springdale, Judy Parsons (Lance) of Milton, NS., and Tammy Parsons (Stephen) of St. John’s; her eight grandchildren-Penny, Chad, Heather, Christina, Jacob, Sarah, Gregory and Justin; and her three (soon to be 4) great grandchildren-Joely, Brynne and Melody together with a wide circle of family and friends.
Besides being an avid knitter, crocheter, reader, cook, baker and quilter, her greatest passion was picking berries; a jam and jelly maker extraordinaire, and was know for her kindness and generosity. Phyllis was a member of the United Church Women, Women’s Institute, Lioness Club and the Hospital Auxillary.
The funeral service will be held at Grace United Church on Tuesday, February 21, 2017 at 2:00 PM with Rev. Graham Cook officiating with interment at the United Church Cemetery.
Pallbearers are Penny Spencer, Chad Spencer, Gregory Parsons, Ricky Abbott, Derrick Short and Robert Hiscock.
