^,

1951.

Phyllis worked at home being a housewife and mother and also kept the books for Nilius Builders for over 30 years.

Chuck and Phyllis had four boys, Charles III , Larry, Tim,
and Jeff.  They made it a priority to travel with their family even as the
“boys” got older and had their own families.  Every other year they would
all take a trip together, usually to Estes Park, Colorado spending time
enjoying the beauty of God’s creation.

Chuck & Phyllis were both avid Husker fans.  Both loved
football and Phyllis especially loved volleyball. They purchased Football season
tickets with a family friend in 1962 and the family still has the same
tickets/seats to this day.  Go Big Red!!

Phyllis will be missed by her children Skip , Larry
, Tim , Jeff , 11 grandchildren, and 23
great-grandchildren plus one on the way. Phyllis loved her Lord and dedicated her
life to serving Christ. Memorials to Omaha Christian Academy and Faith Baptist
