How It All Started
Whatever Happened To?
Phyllis worked at the Rogers Park Library after graduating from Kelvyn. In 1960 Phyllis married her high school sweetheart, Lou. They have two great children and 4 grandchildren (and one grandchild on the way). Her fondest memories of her days at Kelvyn are the good friends she made at KP. She especially enjoyed Mr. Kenny's biology class. Mrs. Bergstrom was Phyllis' division teacher. Phyllis says Mrs. Bergstrom was a REAL lady who always made Phyllis feel special. Phyllis and Lou moved to northern California in 1978. She was offered a position with State Farm and became an agent in 1981. She had a very successful career and even qualified for the millionaire trips and traveled around the world with them. Phyllis retired 5 years ago and moved to southern California to be near her daughter and her family. Phyllis and Lou have a very busy retired life now. She does lots of volunteer work. Her husband, Lou, is a Ham Radio Operator, and they have made some wonderful friends in southern California. Phyllis and Lou love their busy life there. They do a lot of entertaining, belong to a book club, hold membership chair at their local Synagogue, and they're doing a lot of traveling - 12 cruises in 5 years! Phyllis says Annie, a little Malatese, and Honey Bun, a Shih-Tzu, keep her young. The Frank's still love Chicago and they try to visit their long time friends there every couple of years. Phyllis graduated from Darwin Elementary School. She's looking forward to seeing everyone at our 50th KP Reunion.
