Phyllis Anne Beckmann Ainsworth

I am deeply saddened, and my heart is broken to hear about Nana, that is how my son Ryan, his maternal cousins, and all my family called our beautiful Lady and grandmother Phyllis! I have known and loved Nana, my mother-in-law, or Phyllis Anne, like grandma Myrtle Beckmann used to call her, for 26 years, and I was concerned about Nana all these months, as she was living alone, but that was her destiny! We all do not know when our time will be up!! Nana’s only grandson, and our only son, Ryan Ainsworth, his mother Mona Ainsworth, and his father Sterling Ainsworth, Nana’s only son and family, are still alive, thank God! Nana, we will miss you very much, and we will fondly remember the great memories, Christmas, Thanksgiving, the visits to Charleston and Mississippi, the trips around Germany, France, and Europe! We will cherish the fun times we shared when Ryan, my beautiful child, and my wonderful son, used to brighten our days, and entertain us with his school stories, and good sense of humor during all those years when we all lived together under the same roof! Nana, we will always love you, cherish you, and celebrate the great life that you had with us, as we know you are in a better world. May you rest in Peace and Serenity, and in Jesus’s name, we pray! Amen! With much love, Sterling, Ryan, and Mona Ainsworth.

Sterling, I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your mother. If I had seen the notice in time, I would have come to show my support for you and your family. May your memories sustain you at this difficult time. Sincerely.

This wonderful lady was more than my sister-in-law. She was the sister that I never had. It was great being in school together, seeing her talents, crying and laughing together. Nothing compared to her warmth, love, hospitality, giving heart, and wonderful southern cooking, fun, laughter, and loving me generously no matter what was happening in our lives! My children shared holidays and summers together with Sterling, Jr. and they loved her so much, as I did! Those memories will be talked about always.I will always be grateful for her being a part of my life. Her kindness, love and support in my life will never be forgotten and remain in my heart always. My heart would be nothing without the memories of our lives! The highlights in my life are treasures of this wonderful and amazing lady, and my precious nephew, Sterling Jr. She has touched my life in immeasurable ways. I will see her again someday and what a glorious day that will be. I thank my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ for her!

Sterling, thank you for bringing Phyllis into our lives, it has been a real pleasure to know her and to be called her friend. We are especially grateful for the affection that G-Unit had given Andrew and the boys, she could always be counted on when they needed her most. We have many happy memories to cherish and we will miss her dearly.

Accept my heart-felt sympathies for your loss. Phyllis was a dear classmate, a gracious young lady and a kind soul who reached out to all. Our class at Meridian High School, Mississippi was enriched by her academic excellence and strong character.

A lovely and studious friend of our Meridian High School Class of 1958.

Nana, We miss you and we love you very much!! Your smile, your jokes, and our happy Memories will help us sustain in this difficult time! We know you are in a happy and peaceful place! Your loving, and caring family (Son, grandSon and daughter-in-law). Sterling Jr., Ryan and Mona Ainsworth

We miss you and love you very much Nana! We always think of you and cherish our wonderful memories. Big Hugs from,

Ryan your only and unique grandson :), Mama Mona Ainsworth and my special lady, Kirsten Salpini! We always think of you, Nana!
