Phyllis Schwartz
Phyllis Schwartz (nee Rudolph), the wife of Dr. Milton Schwartz and the love of his life for 61 years, the compassionate mom of Randall (& Abby) Schwartz and Erica (& Nicholas) Schwartz-Hall, the adoring Mimom of Kyle, Sophie, Isaiah, Raphael, and Elijah, passed away peacefully Monday, January 11, at St. Mary Medical Center with her loved ones at her side.
She was an avid lover of all puzzles and games, an incurable romantic, and an amazing cook (known worldwide for her famous brisket). Phyllis worked as a computer operator at Univac on one of the first computers. She was a founding board member of the Newtown Chamber Orchestra, along with her husband, Milton, and served on it's board for 20+ years. In her later years, she turned her passion for the arts into a BA in Art History at Temple University and then into the Interim Curator of Children's Education at the Michener Art Museum.
Phyllis had a unique way of making people feel special. She treated everyone with dignity and respect, whether a new introduction or a lifelong friend.
Mom, we are grateful to you for teaching us the value of family and the meaning of love through your words and actions. You will be sorely missed and lovingly remembered by all whose souls you touched.
Services will be private due to Covid-19 restrictions.
