Deborah Seykora lit a candle on 09/15/2014:
"Dear Mom, We all know you did fight so hard to overcome your disease. You had a very strong spirit when you were on this earth and your spirit lives on with those who cherish your memory, always love you for the person you were, and MISS you terribly! You would have been celebrating your birthday today Mom, and I am looking up to Heaven, to say I wish you were here with us to turn 74 years old. Remembering you today and always, I love you Mom - Deborah Lynn" -

"Dear Mom, It has been 2 years ago since I travelled to 100 Mile House to spend Christmas with you. We didn't know at the time it would be our last one, because you were always staying positive and determined to be a Survivor. Now you are no longer with us, but I feel your spirit and love with me all the time. I love you Mom, and miss you so much! - Deborah" -

"Dear Mom, Today is "Mother's Day", and one year since I started this website. I miss being able to talk to you about everything under the sun. You were such a good listener, always gave me good advice, and never being judgemental. When I have difficulty figuring out what I need to do, I ask with tears in my eyes, what my dear Mom would say to me. I feel your strong spirit and enjoy when you come to visit me from Heaven. There are no words which will explain how much I miss you Mom. Lovingly remembered always - Deborah Lynn"
About her
Phyllis Elizabeth Erickson (nee Lowe)
Born: September 15th, 1940
Passed on: June 28th, 2013
It is with profound sadness we announce the passing of Phyllis Elizabeth Erickson (nee Lowe), a devoted wife of nearly fifty-four years, wonderful mother, sister, grandmother, aunt and friend. Phyllis will be lovingly remembered and greatly missed by her husband Dan, daughter Deborah Seykora (Edward), sons Keith (Barb), Norman (Bonnie) and James, granddaughters Trisha, Haleigh, Cassidy, Montana, Emily, Sarah, great-granddaughter Sabrina and grandson Brendan. She is also survived by her three brothers Gary, Dale (Susan) and Glen (Ida), sister Julie Isendoorn, and many nieces and nephews. Phyllis is predeceased by infant daughter Karin Lorraine, father Frederick, mother Violet, brother Bert, sisters Eileen and Lorraine. Born in Park Valley, Saskatchewan, her family moved to Duncan in 1956. Marrying in 1959, she eventually settled with her family in 100 Mile House in 1979. A successful businesswoman and accomplished Chinese Chef, she was well-known among family and friends for her many on-the-go projects and hobbies. A proud member and active volunteer for the Hospice Palliative Care Society, she also enjoyed the Lapidary and Genealogy Clubs. Phyllis even found time to teach basic computer skills to interested Seniors. She loved photography, painting flower pictures, crocheting, sewing and receiving frequent visits from her wild (pet) crow “Castro” and his little family. We would like to thank the staff of 100 Mile House District Hospital and Hospice Palliative Care Society for the compassionate care she received, and the support given to our family. A celebration of Phyllis’s life and service was held on September 21st, 2013 at St. Timothy's Anglican Church. In lieu of flowers, please send a donation to the 100 Mile District Hospice Palliative Care Society.
