Phyllis Woodbury (Page) Weinrich, age 93, passed away on November 28th 2020 in Burlington, Vt.
She was born on January 8th 1927 in Burlington, Vt., she was the daughter of Guy Milton and Mildred (Woodbury) Page Sr.
Phyllis had deep roots in Burlington and Waterville, Vt. She was the granddaughter of Burlington mayor and Vermont governor Urban Woodbury and Paulina Woodbury. Her ancestors were among the first to settle in Waterville, Vt., where she later enjoyed many summers with family and friends.
She graduated from Burlington High School as valedictorian in 1944.
She received undergraduate and masters degrees in Latin and Greek from the University of Vermont and a law degree from Boston University School of Law. When she was admitted to the Vermont Bar in 1951, she was the 27th woman to do so.
She practiced law in Burlington, Vt. for a short time with her father; Guy Page Sr., and brother; Guy Page Jr. Her subsequent career plans to teach were put on hold by her decision to care for her father in his declining illness, and later for mother Mildred (Woodbury) Page, who had suffered a stroke. For both of her parents she was a loving caretaker until their deaths.
She married Francis Alexander Weinrich on December 23rd 1973 in Burlington, Vermont. Her years with Francis were among the happiest of her life. He predeceased her on February 18th 1986.
Afterwards, she spent many winter months in Edenton, North Carolina. Her final years were spent at the Page family home in Malletts Bay, and in Burlington, Vt.
Phyllis enjoyed music and sang in the Vermont Choral Union, Burlington Oratorio Society, and St. Paul’s Cathedral Choir.
One Christmas she wrote marvelous age-appropriate short stories for all seven members of her brother’s family. The last of her Page generation, she kept her sharp memory and was a great source of interesting reminiscences about the family, her Waterville friends and neighbors, Vermont, and Northern League baseball of the 1930’s.
She was predeceased by her parents, one sister; Elizabeth, one brother; Guy Milton Page Jr., and one sister-in-law; Janet (Clark) Page.
