On May 23, 1970, Phyllis married Marvin Heimann at St. Bernard’s Catholic Church in Omaha. Together they made their home on a farm near Monterey, west of West Point, where they raised their family and built a life rooted in faith, hard work, and love.

She began her career as the school nurse in North Bend, later working at St. Francis Memorial Hospital in West Point in various roles, including home health and diabetic care. Her compassion and calm presence left a lasting impact on the lives she touched.

Outside of work, Phyllis enjoyed quilting, reading, participating in book clubs, gardening, and traveling. As a piano player, music was also important in her life. She was a woman of strong Catholic faith, known for her gentle heart, warm smile, and quiet strength.
