Phyllis Bogard was born on October 29th, 1934, in Goodland, Kansas. She was the first born of her parents Norma & Boyd Hubbard. She shared many happy times with her siblings Janice (Pat) Collum, Lester(Jean) Hubbard, David Hubbard, & Sharrel Howe. Phyllis met her husband Stan Bogard in high school in Coquille, Oregon. They got married on December 4th, 1952. They were married 43 years, until Stan passed away. They were blessed with three kids. Lori (Steve) Schwartz, Randy (Roseann) Bogard & Lisa (Jerry) Root.
Blessings kept coming as five grandchildren joined the family. Carrie(Scott) Kendricks, Amy Wentzel (fiancé Jeff Lozano), Joshua Root, Lindsey (Jeff) Huntington, Sarah Bogard and Jordan Root.
Phyllis was thrilled to become a Great-Grandma to Erik, Taylor, Bryson, Maverick, Allison & Everly. She also got to meet her future greats Nick & Lexi.
Phyllis had many jobs. She was the operator at Chase Chevrolet, and also at Hunter Leggett. She ended her working career as a bank teller.
Family and friends were always important to Phyllis. She always made our holidays magical. She enjoyed family get togethers. Traveling in their RV's with her siblings was a highlight for her. She loved visits from her family. Talking on the phone, puttering in her yard and watching TV in her retirement years.
She moved to Sacramento in her last 11 years. She was wheelchair bound, and suffered from Dementia. She was no longer able to care for herself. Lori made sure to get her to all of her many appointments. They enjoyed their weekend outings shopping, where she needed to stock up on her candy. Then they ended the day going to lunch. They loved it when other family could join them. The highlight was always a strawberry milkshake with lunch.
Phyllis was blessed to have her caregiver Joel. He was so good to her.
Phyllis passed peacefully in her sleep on February 17, 2022.
It makes us sad to know we won't hear I love you or feel your hugs anymore. We do take comfort knowing that you will be watching over all of us and we all hope to feel your presence. We talked about that.
May God bless you in eternal peace. Enjoy your time with others that have passed before you... until we once again meet up with you. We will cherish all of our special memories with you. Spread your wings and fly our sweet Angel... you are free from your earthly body.
Remember we all love you so very much.
