[Oe List ...] Laverne Phillips

[Paula Philbrook]

IFrom son, Scott-
I have sad news. My mother, LaVerne Phillips, passed away yesterday. She
was 88. A 30 year survivor of cancer, she had recently been suffering again
from it. She knew many of you or likely knew and worked with your parents
during the two decades that she and my dad spent with the Institute which
for her began as a volunteer at the 5th City preschool. I found a framed
print of her women’s montage which she created and was for a time a fairly
iconic piece of Order decor. I asked her to pose with it some time ago
after I discovered it in her closet. I hope to find the original as we now
go through her things. My mom will be remembered for her enthusiasm and wit
and artistry and curiosity and humanity. A great woman has passed! Please
have a good thought for LaVerne if you will. We miss her terribly already.
