PHYLLIS ROYLANCE PECK Phyllis Roylance Peck 1929~2008 Phyllis Roylance Peck died peacefully on April 10th, 2008 at the age of 78. She was born April 23, 1929 in Parker, Idaho to Darwin and Alta Roylance. Mom will always be remembered for her excellent cooking, craftiness, resourcefulness, and poker prowess. Mom endured many hardships throughout her life, but she had a large, loving, supportive family that she loved very much. She loved to talk about her brothers' many accomplishments; she especially enjoyed cooking and caring for her brother, Bill. As a young mother, Mom made a beautiful home for her family, and she was always ready to rise to any occasion. Birthdays, Christmas, and other holidays were the best; home baked cookies, cakes, and breads were always on hand. There wasn't anything she couldn't do. Later on, mom struggled, but she still did the best she could with what she had. Mom spent the last years of her life at Arlington Hills Rehabilitation Center where she made many friends with the nurses and aides who cared for her. The family wishes to thank them for their friendship and excellent care. She is survived by daughters, Anissa (Jim) Rogers of Portland, Oregon; and Tammy Rogers, Heather Rogers, and Cheryl (Doug) Perkins of Salt Lake City. She is also survived by her brother, Byron (Beverly) Roylance of West Valley; nine grandchildren; and seven great-grandchildren. She is preceded in death by her parents, daughter, Kathy Parker; son, Todd Rogers; and four brothers. Mom, we love you. May you finally be at peace. Published in the Salt Lake Tribune on 4/13/2008.
