In Loving Memory
Phyllis and I were members and board members of the Bountiful Ladies Twilight League. With league play starting up soon, I was thinking about her last week. My thoughts were of thanks to the women like her who organized and led the league for the benefit of the members and the game itself. My condolences to her family.
