Phyllis Marion Schreiber

Wasilla AK resident, 55, peacefully passed away Friday, March 8, 2019, at home after a long fight with lung cancer. She was lovingly surrounded by family.

Phyllis was born November 30, 1963 in San Antonio TX to Ralph and Gloria Schreiber. She graduated from Forest Hill High School in Jackson MS in 1982. During 2004 she packed up and moved from Star MS to Palmer AK with her daughter Ashley Gregory. She worked as a pharmacy technician for Walgreens in Wasilla from 2009 to 2018. In December 2017, she married her long-time companion Robert Kemper in Wasilla.

Phyllis gained a very in-depth knowledge of animals from her zoo keeping experience while living in Mississippi. Photography was her favorite hobby, and she thoroughly enjoyed outdoor activities: camping, four wheeling, and fishing. She was an inspiring and integral member of the Valley Bunco Ladies and will always have a place at the head table where she will be remembered "ringing the bell" and "rolling the dice". Phyllis's wonderful sense of humor endeared her to everyone she came in contact with, and it is a great testament to her nature that so many long lasting friendships were formed over the years.

Phyllis is survived by her two daughters, Alisa Worley, Pearl MS and Ashley Gregory, Wasilla AK; brothers, Allen Schreiber, Houston TX and Carey Schreiber, Palmer AK; and sisters Cathy Schreiber Vogel, Houston TX, and Wendy Schreiber Sherrill, Millington TN. She will forever be in the hearts of her family, friends, acquaintances and co-workers.

An informal memorial will be held on Saturday, 23 March at the Wasilla Heritage Chapel, 1015 S Check St, Wasilla, beginning at 3PM. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations be made to the Lung Cancer Research Foundation, 155 E 155th St Ste 6H, New York, New York 10022. {lungcancerresearchfoundation.org}
