PHYLLIS FAMILANT Obituary

FAMILANT, Phyllis E. (Pullman) Was born in Boston and lived a fun-filled, exciting life before meeting her future husband, George, at age nineteen. To hear her tell it, those first nineteen years were packed with more adventures and boyfriends than most experience in a lifetime. She was a Boston-girl through and through and had the accent to prove it. In 1949, Phyllis married George and moved to Brockton. By age 27, she had given birth to three daughters and had become totally immersed in the Brockton community. Her days were filled with endless activities; her Saturday nights were always busy (with their many friends); and Sunday dinners were spent with family at a Chinese restaurant in either Sharon, Randolph or Rockland. After 30 years or so in Brockton, Phyllis and George built a house on the Cape, and perhaps her happiest times were spent there. She immediately made many new friends, as people were drawn to her. Phyllis's infectious laugh and winning personality won over just about anyone she met. Her friend list spans generations. Even as a teenager, Phyllis had the wisdom to pick the right guy. She and George were a dynamic and loving couple for over sixty-four years. Her children, their spouses, her grandchildren and great grandchildren were her greatest source of immeasurable happiness and pride. Phyllis's many friends were lucky to have known her, but her family benefited the most. Luckiest of all were her children and their spouses: Lyn Familant, Valerie and Abbey Doneger, and Jean and Jim Bourdon; her adoring grandchildren: Adam and Rachel Doneger, Jason and Amanda Doneger, Michael and Dominik Doneger, Alexander Familant, and Sally Bourdon and Jack Bourdon; seven great-grandchildren; her sister Rozzie Strock; and her many friends.
