Hasting's Reminder - Sat. February 5, 2022

                            PHYLLIS JOANN KARRAR

Phyllis Joann Karrar, age 75, loving mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and 
friend, left her earthly body and entered into the arms of her Heavenly father 
the early morning hours of February 21, 2022.

Phyllis was born June 25, 1946, and grew up in the Sunfield area with her 
family. She did so many amazing and different things in her life! She was the 
only woman on the design team of the recorder head that made it possible for 
cassette tapes to be played, did a little street racing in her old Fairlane, 
went zip lining in Costa Rica and was the kind of person you have to love.

She did everything all in and when she became a mother it was no different. Her 
entire focus was on being the best mom-then the best grandma, and then the best 
great grandma. We all feel she beyond succeeded! Not only was she the most 
amazing mom/grandma/great-grandma, she was a friend, coach, leader, a favorite 
teacher's aide (Everyone loved "Ms. Hyvarinen"), bible study partner, role 
model, fishing buddy and so much more to so many.

She was a source of unconditional love and acceptance.She touched everyone that 
crossed her path with either her heart, wisdom or her humor. She fought so many 
"unbeatable' battles that she actually won. She was a fighter-an inspiration to 
never give up! Her Faith was her backbone. She gave her all until the Lord told 
her it was her time to rest.

She will be missed dearly.

She is survived by her children, Rick Hyvarinen, Stacey (Blaine) Cordell, Jody 
Hyvarinen (Patrick Yerby) and Cindy (Steve) Piercefield; grandchildren; Jacolby 
Cordell (Shalina Allen), Jonathan Barber (Keirsten Olufs), Jaelyn Cordell 
(Christian Fizia), Paxton Cordell, Cheyenne Piercefield, Temperance Piercefield, 
Finley Hyvarien, John Yervy, Jr; great-grandchildren: RaeLynn, Isabella and Kyro 
Barber and Katiri Joann Cordell.

For those wishing to participate in a celebration of her life a memorial service 
will be held at 3 p.m. on March 26, 2022 at the Sunfield United Brethren Church 
with Pastor Darrel Bosworth officiating.
