Phyllis A. Greenwood (nee Liedel), was born in Philadelphia on May 27, 1948, lived in Marlton Lakes, and graduated from Lenape High School in Medford, NJ in 1966. Phyllis returned to school as an adult in 1978 and graduated from Temple University’s School of Pharmacy in 1983.
In her childhood she learned how to cook and sew, two skills in which she had tremendous pride. Anyone who tasted any of her pies, potato salad, or chocolate chip cookies could understand why. She gladly volunteered her time and energy to create dresses and decorative ring pillows for weddings, as well as Christening gowns, for anyone in need, including the children of Vince and Janet Papale.
Phyllis had two great passions in life: her family, and the Philadelphia Eagles. As a season ticket holder of the Eagles for over thirty years, she was able to enjoy these passions together by attending games with family and friends. She is best known for her unfathomable generosity, open door, and open heart, which created her far-reaching extended family.
Phyllis is survived by her three children, Rick Greenwood Jr. (Peggy), Buddy, Jennifer Cosgrove (Mark) and her five grandchildren, Ricky, Sage, Connor, Aidan, and Brooklynn. She is also the beloved sister of the late Fran Liedel, Stan Liedel (Kathleen), the late Donna Babicky, Rosita Haas (Dave), and sister-in-law Norma Liedel. Many nieces and nephews, with their families, were near and dear to her as well – Tim Liedel (Christy), Cindy DeGregory (Larry), Mike Liedel (Amy), Sheryl Bowen, Will Liedel, Scott Liedel (Shelly), Andrea Babicky, Gina Algado, Shannon Swanda (Chris), Erin Grelak (Kurt), Kevin Liedel (Joy), David Haas, Michael Haas, David Babicky.
Relatives and friends are invited to attend her visitation Saturday 9:00 – 11:00 AM at the Egizi Funeral Home, 119 Ganttown Road, Washington Twp. Funeral Service 11:00 AM. Interment will be private.
In lieu of flowers, donations in Phyllis’ memory may be made to Samaritan Hospice, 5 Eves Drive, Suite 300, Marlton, NJ 08053.
Condolences may be shared with the family at www.egizifuneral.com.

My mom (Diane Patterson) worked with Phyl for many years at Rxd in Erial. Phyllis prided herself being "The Good Grandmom" to my daughters. My mom passed in 2013 and what a great comfort to know them two are together again. Phyl was a great woman and will be sorely missed.

I loved working with Phyllis at CVS for many years. She was like a second mother to my sister, my brother, and I. She even attended all of our weddings and made us ring bearer pillows and did alterations for our dresses. Her generosity is something I strive to live by and instill in my own children. She will be greatly missed by my family and her extended CVS family.

When I was a young Marine returning for leave after Desert Storm, I arrived to Newark airport to my family and about 60 person mob. Of all the people there, the biggest surprise was Phyllis. She drove all the way to Newark from south Jersey to just give me a big hug a kiss and a simple "welcome home". All that way for just a minute of my time. That's the type of woman she was. I've never forgotten that moment, and I will miss her whole heartedly.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

Phyllis, I will always remember how generous of a person you were to everybody. You were family to me and my family. I always looked forward to inviting you for Thanksgiving with us. I have never met anyone that loved the EAGLES as much as you Phyllis. You have raised such nice children. I saw you days before you passed and I could not watch you suffer anymore. I love you and will cherish all the memories I have of you. God Bless Phyllis.

I am so sorry for your loss. I will always remember when you lived in Lebanon Lakes, and your mom was working so hard to keep it all together. She was a very strong, independent amazing woman. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Love, Tracey-Day Titus

Phyllis and I met through Tastefully Simple. She loved the products and decided to become a consultant. She sold TS for over 2 and 1/2 years, and was always excited about sharing the products. I'm saddened to read about her passing, and please know that she will be missed!

Phyllis was a wonderful, spirited woman with a great sense of humor which she liked to direct at her loved ones, especially her beloved sister Rosita. We met Phyllis through Rosita and shared many laughs over the years. She will be truly missed by all who knew her. She will be critiquing the Eagles from the sidelines above. Rest in peace, Phyllis.

Having been friends since the fourth grade Phyllis and I have had lots of memories over the years. But the best memories were when we were teenagers. Specifically when we both started dating two guys from Philadelphia who were in the same rock band that became popular with the Philly Universities. Thus, many fraternity parties to attend. Anyway, I think Phyllis and I both would agree those years were the best. But our shared memories bonded us for life. I will miss you my dear friend. Got bless you, Friends forever, Sherry

She was an amazing woman, having only met her a few times, she had the ability to make you feel so welcome and included. She was very generous and just spread warmth all around her. She touched lives of people she hadn't even met. I know she will be greatly missed.
