Phyllis Nolan Caudle, a resident of Pearsall, Texas, passed away peacefully after a brief illness on July 14th, 2024. She had recently celebrated her 86th birthday at home surrounded by her family and enjoying the well wishes of friends.
Phyllis was born in Junction, Texas on July 7th, 1938. The second child of an extended family of nine children. She graduated from Junction High School, married, became a mother of two children, attended Kerrville Business College, moved to Cotulla, Texas with her family where she had her third child, and lived there happily for over 50 years.

Phyllis enjoyed cooking for her family, she was a wonderful seamstress, loved watching movies, dancing, reading murder mysteries, raising goats, and oil painting.
