Phyllis attended Union Grade School and High School, graduating in May 1950. She went on to Peru State Teachers College where she met the love of her life, Robert Allen Gausman. She would go on to teach at a country school in Cass county before her and Robert were married on June 5, 1954. To this union four children were born: Julie Little (Rick), Joni Backer (Michael), and Jeffrey Gausman. Before moving to Fairbury, the family lived in Davenport, Nebraska until 1965, where Robert taught science and coached high school football, basketball, and track. Phyllis remained a stay-at-home-mother until her youngest started school. She worked at Kellwood sewing factory, then at Jefferson Memorial Hospital (now Jefferson Community Health and Life) as a pharmacy technician until her retirement. She was an active volunteer with Meals on Wheels and the Senior Diner, where she decorated the tables with her collection of holiday trinkets. Active in the First United Methodist Church, she worked tirelessly in the women’s group, an eternally gracious, loving and invaluable part of the local community. In her final two years, she resided in Heritage Care Center in Fairbury, where she stole the hearts of staff and residents alike, and will be greatly missed by those who knew her. Phyllis is survived by her three children and grandchildren Karenna Awtry (Josh), Mikaela, Jareb, Andrew, Mallory, and Madelyn Liewer, and Patrick Backer, as well as great grandchildren Allison and Drew Awtry, Ivan Liewer, and Aurora Nelson.
