I am deeply saddened to hear about the loss of such an incredible soul. Gigi was not only a phenomenal basketball player who inspired so many with her skill, determination, and passion for the game but also a cherished friend to our community. Her kindness, generosity, and unwavering support touched countless lives, leaving behind a legacy that will never be forgotten. My heart goes out to everyone who had the privilege of knowing her. Please take comfort in the memories you shared and the indelible mark she left on this world. The family and the community have my deepest condolences during this difficult time

Dear Forest, Please accept my deepest condolences on the passing of Phyllis, better known to me always as Gigi. We entered first grade together and were friends thru out our school years. Even though we took different paths in adulthood we always remained dearest friends. I loved Gigi and she was always the strength during some of my saddest times. She was so lovely and kind. She will be greatly missed by all her love ones and friends. I will cherish her always.
Sending my sincerest condolences to Forest and the entire Tom's and Ross families. May God continue to bless and keep you all during your time of bereavement and afterwards.
To Forrest and family. I extend my deepest condolences. I pray your continual strength and comfort in the coming moments, days and years. In Jesus Name Tanzy Barrow Wallace
