Phyllis Larson Wollock, 89, of Old Saybrook, died at home on May 20, surrounded by her family. She was the beloved wife of the late Stanley Wollock.  Phyllis was born in Essex on June 2, 1923, daughter of the late Axel L. and Sarah (Miller) Larson. She had been employed as a bank teller for many years in Deep River.  Phyllis was a quick wit and had a very strong personality.  She was a woman with her own opinions and always spoke her mind, but she was always gracious. She will be sadly missed by all.

She is survived by two nieces, Carol Smith of Old Saybrook and Linda Gahrmann of Ivoryton.  She is also survived by many nephews, great-nieces, great-nephews, and cousins. She was predeceased by her niece Dale Breslin, formerly of Deep River.

The family thanks her caregiver, her niece Donna Weeks, for her compassion and countless hours of attentive care.
