It is very sad to learn of her passing. Ms Mitchiner was a wonderful person and an awesome neighbor. She will be dearly missed.
I will continue to pray for your family and pray to your Mom as a saint in my life. May the Lord bless Y’all with His Peace during this difficult Time.

Mitchner family,
Phyllis was one of a kind. She had a heart of gold and loved being with all the kiddos at True Cross School. She was there when mine were in school and it was always reassuring to see her smiling face.
I have heard many stories that show what an amazing Matriarch,Phyllis is to her family. She is an inspiration to all through her commitment, love and selfless life.
Let her Rest In Peace with her family that went before her.
I only knew your mom for a short time at Serenity Gardens in Friendswood, but she was a very sweet lady. May the Lord comfort you during these times.
Mrs. Mitchiner (and Jerry!) were such a delight to be around; the Mitchiners were one of the first families we met upon moving to Dickinson in 1967. The volleyball parties, the trips to New Braunfels with the whole gang, going to school with all their children, boy, those were the days. My mom treasured her deep friendship with Phyllis. We Crowley kids from up north loved to ask her to say “a Big Orange drink’, just to crack up at her lovely soft southern accent. My sincerest condolences to the entire family, she will be missed but never forgotten.
I will never forget Mrs. Mitchiner’s genuine kindness to me as a scared first grader coming to True Cross school.
What a wonderful and graceful lady she was. She was definitely the mother we all needed at school, always caring and reassuring. Rest in Peace, Mrs. Mitchiner. My prayers go out to the entire family. She will be missed.
Dear Jerry Ann, my heart goes out to you on the loss of your wonderful Mom, Phyllis. I pray that you and your family will find peace and comfort in the knowledge that she was a godly woman who was welcomed into the arms of Jesus. I wish I could hug you today. Love you.
We will miss Phyllis very much. She was a gem. My children went to True Cross School and we all loved her. She had a beautiful smile and was a lovely person. Our condolences and prayers for the family and may her soul Rest In Peace.
To the family of Phyllis,
Her kind and gentle soul is something we shall miss forever. Our deepest condolences

My sincere condolences to the whole family and to the greater Shrine of the True Cross school and parish community on the loss of Phyllis. She was a gem of a person, warm and thoughtful, and incredibly committed to her family, faith and friends. The Molloy family shared many, many good times and laughs with Phyllis and Jerry, their family and other friends at their home, on that special New Braunfels June trip, at church activities and Gator games. Thank you Phyllis and Jerry for all the good times. I hope that those of us who so enjoyed your warm hospitality and genuine affection and acceptance can pay the same forward to the generations beneath us.
God Bless, Chris and Kelly Molloy
I’ll always remember Mrs. Mitchiner as the sweet secretary in the front office at True Cross. She was at True Cross when my brother and I were both students there years ago. I know there’s a very special place for her in Heaven. I’ll pray for comfort for the Mitchiner Family!
My condolences go out to the whole family. I had the honor to be blessed with being able to care for Ms. Phyllis during the last couple of months. I’m thankful to God for allowing me to care for her because she also cared for me at the very same time. She left an impression on my heart that will last. My prayers are with all of the family, and her amazing best friends.
God Bless, Raquel
