Cecile Phyllis Musolf

CECILE PHYLLIS MUSOLF 22 November 1934 – 14 July 2022 Phyllis Musolf, originally from Kansas City, MO and a long-time resident of Foley, AL passed away peacefully on Thursday morning July 14th 2022 after complications arising from diabetes. She is survived by her loving husband of 58 years, Lou, and her devoted children, Cheryl (Kevin) and Lewis. In heaven, Phyllis is reunited with her beloved family across the extended Evans clan and her in-laws from Minnesota. Phyllis loved her life, her family and God. She took great pleasure in the accomplishments and happiness of others and was steadfast, loyal, resourceful, creative, adventurous and full of fun. Having been compelled to leave her career with the US Department of State when she married in 1964, Phyllis quietly inspired and empowered other women and her community over a lifetime of volunteer and charitable activities including the Christian Womens’ Club, Stonecroft Ministries and as a highly successful Mary Kay Director. A university graduate (Drury College, BA 1957), Phyllis was an avid reader and member of the Foley Library Book Club. She would stay up all night reading and especially enjoyed historical novels, mysteries and science fiction. She loved games played around the family dinner table, puzzling over a crossword, winning at bingo and was an expert at Bridge, playing weekly at the Foley Senior Citizen Center where for many years she and her mother Gladys were a formidable fixture at Duplicate. Phyllis had a lifelong passion for travel and lived in many countries across Africa, the Middle East, the Far East and Europe often at pivotal moments in those countries’ histories. She would regularly pack up an entire household and move her children and a cat through international borders manned by communist armies or airports hacked out of the jungle to join Lou on his next assignment. Phyllis and Lou retired to Foley over 30 years ago from the Washington DC area and she was active for many years in the Baldwin Country Chamber of Commerce and with Foley First Presbyterian as Clerk of Sessions. Phyllis brought light wherever she went, and she will always be much loved and greatly missed. Phyllis’s funeral will be held at Foley First Presbyterian Church on Thursday July 21, 2022 at 3pm .Her Visitation will be at the church from 2pm till time of service. Arrangements entrusted to Cason Funeral Service in Foley Al
