She was born on August 8, 1948, in Gilbert, West Virginia, to the late Kenneth Blankenship and Mary Frances (Riffe) Blankenship.<\/p>\r\nShe was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Roddie Sizemore of Silver Lake, IN. Together they built a life full of love and lasting family ties.\r\n\r\nShe and her husband owned and operated an antique mall in Roann, Indiana, for several years, sharing a love of finding beauty and value in well-worn things.\r\n\r\nPhyllis was a devoted mother to Robin Sizemore of Warsaw, IN; Drema (Barry) Drudge of North Manchester, IN; Roderick Sizemore of Silver Lake, IN; Cherokee Sizemore of Silver Lake, IN; and the late Tammy (Sizemore) Stanley of Wabash, IN.\r\n\r\nHer grandchildren include: Jessica Stanley, Megan Cooper, Mia Drudge, Rosenea (Jay) Evans, Broderick Sizemore, Christina (Bronson) Albaugh, Zackery Drudge, and Adian Sizemore. She also had twelve great-grandchildren: Autumn Stanley, Gregory Cooper, Phoebe Cooper, Destiny Evans, Riley Evans, Damien Albaugh, Darren Sizemore, Darien Sizemore, and Alexander Drudge, Anaya Jackson, Opal Cooper, and Ruby Cooper \u2014with two more grandchildren on the way, joyfully awaited by Autumn Stanley and Destiny Evans.\r\n\r\nPhyllis counted many others as honorary children and grandchildren, among them John Wick and Veronica Parra. If you loved her, she claimed you. And vice versa.\r\n\r\nShe was preceded in death by her siblings Dorothy Jones, Betty Wooten, Sheila \u201cCookie\u201d Blankenship Walden, and Misty Dawn Blankenship Lester.\r\n\r\nShe was lovingly raised by her maternal grandparents, Mattie (Carter) and Golden Adkins, in Logan County, West Virginia. She grew up alongside the Adkins boys, who were like brothers to her. She is survived by Jimmy Adkins (Betty) of Omar, WV; Allen Adkins (Patty) of FL; Tony Adkins (Teresa) of TN; and Jack Adkins of Gilbert, WV. She was preceded in death by Austin Adkins.\r\n\r\nPhyllis enjoyed a hot cup of coffee, a cold case mystery show, and painting any piece of furniture that held still long enough. She loved flowers, her church family, and though she hadn\u2019t been able to attend recently, eagerly read the church newsletter from cover to cover. She was deeply generous, often giving more than she could afford to, especially to those she cared for.\r\n\r\nShe loved spending time with her dear friend Shelley Swihart.\r\n\r\nShe is also survived by her beloved grand dog, Sheen, whom she nicknamed Diablo.\r\n\r\nShe gave deeply, cared fiercely, and loved in ways both seen and unseen. If there\u2019s a porch in heaven, we like to think Dad\u2019s waiting for her there, paintbrush in hand, ready for one more project together. \u201cThis place has possibilities,\u201d he\u2019d say, and she\u2019d agree.\r\n\r\nFamily and friends may call Saturday, June 7, 2025 from 10:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at McKee Mortuary, 1401 State Road 114 West, North Manchester, Indiana. Funeral services will begin at the conclusion of calling with Pastor Kelly Beutler and Pastor Erin Hurias officiating. Burial will be at Laketon Cemetery, Laketon, IN.\r\n\r\nThe family of Phyllis Sizemore has entrusted McKee Mortuary with care and final arrangements.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"mt-10\">To order\u00a0<a class=\"text-blue-600 hover:text-blue-400 hover:underline\" href=\"https:\/\/manage2.tukioswebsites.com\/o\/v2\/trees\/3cec786f-e63d-4da0-9d37-41e49f8a7d2d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">memorial trees<\/a>\u00a0or send flowers to the family in memory of Phyllis Ann Sizemore, please visit our\u00a0<a class=\"text-blue-600 hover:text-blue-400 hover:underline\" href=\"https:\/\/manage2.tukioswebsites.com\/orders\/v2\/flowers\/3cec786f-e63d-4da0-9d37-41e49f8a7d2d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">flower store<\/a>.<\/div>\r\n<script  src=\"https:\/\/\/pagead\/js\/.js?client=0531879237494766\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"\"\r\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"0531879237494766\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"2870348528\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     ( = window. || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n \r\n<script  src=\"https:\/\/\/pagead\/js\/?client=0531879237494766\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"0531879237494766\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"2870348528\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     ().push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Phyllis Ann (Blankenship) Sizemore of Silver Lake, Indiana, passed away surrounded by loved ones on June 1, 2025 at the age of 76.
