With heavy hearts, we announce the death of Phyllis Riffe (Mahtomedi, Minnesota), who passed away on February 23, 2018 at the age of 89. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Phyllis Riffe to pay them a last tribute.
She was predeceased by: her husbands, Robert E. Peterson and George Riffe. She is survived by: her friend Norwegian; her children, Kathleen Jensen (Mike) and Scott Peterson (Kandace Olsen); her grandchildren, Megan Peterson of St. Paul, MN, Isaac Peterson (Leslie) of Mountain View, CA, Emily Jensen of Minneapolis, MN, Peter Jensen of Oakdale, MN, Ellen Peterson of St. Paul, MN and Alexander Wolsky (Bethany Winkels) of St. Paul, MN.; and her great grandchildren, Elias Scott Peterson-Brovold and Josephine Ruth Peterson.

She also attached small notes to the back of keepsakes noting "this was from Grandma Young" or "your Uncle Charles made this in 1981." Diagnosed in 2012, Phyllis said if she'd known she was going to have Alzheimer's, she wouldn't have taken such good care of herself.
