family business, Kobler Drug Store with her parents, three sisters, and
one brother. Raised in a Christian family, Phyllis lived a life that was
shaped and guided by her faith.

over 20 years. Upon retirement they moved back to their hometown of

(Gary) Werling, and her son, Kelly Madden, as well as her sister-in-law
Janice Richmeier, 9 grandchildren, 25 great-grandchildren, and many
