Obituary: Phyllis Ann Green, cherished wife, mother, co-worker and friend, passed away on Thursday, Dec. 27, 2012, at the age of 61. A resident of Crestview, Fla., Phyllis was born in Middletown, N.Y., and grew up on a horse ranch in South Dakota. She served as the Middle School Vice Principal at Liza Jackson Preparatory School. Phyllis earned her master's degree at Florida State University, was teacher-in-residence at Vanderbilt University, and was a member of the North American International Baccalaureate assessment team on middle school credential-ing.

After that, she began her dream job at Liza Jackson Preparatory School.
