Phyllis Ann Fenga dashed into this world on June 27th, 1952, to proud parents Big Pete and Vinie, NYC's first power couple.  Along with her three brothers(Mike, Phillip, and Peter) and two sisters(Marie and Carol), Phyllis spent her early years in a family owned brownstone on Cherry Street in the Lower East Side of Manhattan.
Phyllis and her family, including rock star daughter Vanessa, ran circles around their neighborhood in Bensonhurst, attending weekly Sunday dinners with the extended family and festive Fourth of July celebrations on the corner of Bath Ave.  Eventually, the sprawl of Long Island called her name and off to a new adventure she went, bringing her city chic style and Brooklyn attitude.
When Phyllis wasn't playing the slots, beach bumming it, or dining on crab legs, she was busy whipping up feasts for her family and friends.  STUFFED ARTICHOKES. SCOTCHADAS. SALAD/DRESSING. SUNDAY GRAVY. MEATBALLS.  Of course, these skills were paramount in providing the best possible holiday experience, complete with the best decorations this side of the North Pole.
Anyone who knew her, knew that she easily could have taken the World Record for longest conversation, on the phone or otherwise. The only thing Phyl liked more was traveling or dreaming up her next destination.  That is, until she became a Nana. Julian and Adrian were the shining stars of her universe. Those boys gave her a run for her money, but she loved every second of it. Being Ba-Nana was the greatest joy she ever knew. Only slightly less important to her was knowing that her handsome and good-hearted son-in-law Eric the Redd was taking care of her daughter and her Nana's Boy and her RugRat.
Anyone who ever had the pleasure of knowing this kind and beautiful woman will remember her for her humor and warmth. She could make anyone feel like part of the family within five minutes of meeting them. She could pick up where she left off with friends that she hadn't seen in twenty years . There was truly something special about this magnificent woman.
