"We could use some on the ground assistance with ushering, documentation and IT set up at the UU Church, if anyone has ideas or time to help please contact us at: PhyllisRLF@use.startmail.com.

The Phyllis Rachel Larrabee Foundation has been formed as a formal vehicle to be responsible for this effort. If you have any loose Phyllis poems that you'd like to share with us please contact us via email at PhyllisRLF@use.startmail.com so that we can arrange the best way for you to get them to us."
