- Finishing high school in 1942, she spent the next three years as part of the Greatest Generation working in the offices of the Quincy Shipyard. After the war she worked for New England telephone, where she met her future husband, Thomas Boylan. Left a widow at the age of 36, with two boys under the age of ten, she went back to work as secretary to the director of nursing at Jordan Hospital. She did this while managing a home and raising a family. Within ten years she was working in administration at the assisted living facility, Heritage Hill, on Stafford Street. Injured in a car accident in the 1970's, she battled back from nerve damage to her spinal cord to spend twenty three years at the job she loved the most, in the gift shop at Plimoth Plantation, where she was proud to be an advocate of the town she loved. - See more at: http://www.cartmellfuneralhome.com/obituary/Phyllis-Frances-Boylan/Plymouth-MA/998202#sthash.JYWIHJXX.dpuf
