The women of Miss Phyllis's era are a rare breed. As I watched her cook, she reminded me of my childhood watching my mother and great aunts. I would sit there and giggle just watching her videos....I commented about her Tupperware sugar container, I knew she had gotten those back in the 70's cause my Mama had the same set. God bless you and your family and thank you for sharing her with us. She had such a soothing sweet manner about her.

Hi Stevie! I’m 60, and yup! I have the orange Tupperware set!! Guess they last forever!! Have a great day!

Great stories about the "Dill Balls" and Mr Bucky's upside down fishing adventures! They both must have been great people to be around as a child. Of course Phyllis wouldn't let that "rabied dog" story go without checking that out in the way she used to tell us about investigations she mentioned on her channel. So wished I had met her and Mr. Bucky. They both made me smile. You were blessed Stephen. As I know they believed they were blessed with their kids and grandkids. Thanks for this. Please do post those recipes. I have saved most of your Mom's recipes. She cooked just like my mom. Seeing her and listening to her reminded me so much of my Mother.

Seriously who would give this a thumbs down????? If you don’t like DON’T watch . Thank you Stephen and Godbless 🙏🏼

@Louise Christian i agree..i was thinking the same thing...thats ppl for you..

This transition of not having Phyllis with us anymore is difficult for most of us even if we didn't know your mom in person. I used to spend my morning (with coffee) and catch up on her videos. Some topics really hit home with me - especially the one about lessons of life her mother taught her. Sitting and watching her just seemed to start the day off well. It became a routine for many of us. I am not alone in thinking that she was loved by a LOT of "strangers" who became connected to her through this channel. Thanks so much for easing our grief as we continue to pray for your family as well. Most of us WISH to be remembered by so many!! God bless you Steven.

What a great woman, I will never forget Phyllis. She brought back Jello - I love you Phyllis - rest in peace.

You look so much like your mother.She was a beautiful lady.

What great memories! You sure do resemble your beautiful Mom. I will miss her calming demeanor and good old home cooked recipes. I'm glad that her pain is now gone and that she and Mr. Bucky are together again forever. ❤RIP Phyllis & Bucky❤

"Precious memories how they linger, How they ever flood my soul. In the stillness of the midnight Precious sacred scenes unfold." I'm so sorry for your loss......

Im sure after military service your skin isn't to thin when it comes to cruel comments, please ignore them. The rest of us appreciate your stories of Both your mom and Bucky just as we loved her and her stories. She was quite a lady and had a great sense of humor and Character.

Steve your mom must have been so proud of you..thank you for keeping this blog going, we loved your mom and Bucky, will surely miss them both..keep the stories coming we love them One of my favorites I remember when Bucky said to her, what do you want for Christmas and she more or less said, should you get me some Whitmans candy for you to eat since Im not big on chocolates and he said well yes I was thinking you might like some and that went back and forth for 10 minutes and gave me a chuckle..they were darling together!..😎❤👌🍫🍱

Taught us how to cook, how to behave, how to love, how to pray.... what a legacy. We should all be as fortunate as to leave a fraction of that info. Thank you for continuing the tradition. We are all grateful.

Your mother was a beautiful human being. She will be deeply missed on here.

Looking at you Stephen is like seeing a young Phyllis. It seems crazy to care for and now miss someone you never met, but that is the effect your mom had on so many. Thank you so much for helping to keep her memory alive. So many of us have worried over and prayed for her over these last months, and now she is rejoicing in Heaven with Bucky. Thank you!

Phyllis hot chocolate is a big hit in my family. Whenever I'm about to make it, "who wants phyllis' hot chocolate?!" it's a resounding yes. Your mother lives in our home. She ignited a passion for cooking for me. ♥️

I have watched Ms. Phyllis and Mr. Bucky for the last 6 years, after I found her I had to go back and watch what she had posted to get caught up LOL. You are truly blessed that you have your mama on video and can go and watch her anytime. She had one of the best channels on KZread, and she will be so sadly missed by her KZread family!!! Please don't take her channel down as there are several recipes that I refer back to....such as her biscuits (the best) and I just love watching her make them....well make anything really.

I know it’s not easy but your doing great! May God bless you young man, in all you do! 😉

God bless you Steven, you are a wonderful son. Your Mom and Bucky were blessed to have you. 🙏🏻❤️

Miss Phyllis was gorgeous & Mr Bucky was handsome,they made such a stunning couple together! But they were beautiful inside also,not just on the outside where beauty fades!

She was such a sweet kind hearted human being.

Phyllis and Bucky were such amazing, lovely people. ❤️❤️❤️ They will never be forgotten. They would be SO proud of you! 💘💘

Loved your mom's sweet voice and her recipes. Love the way you are honoring your mom. She'd be mighty proud.

I am so grateful to what she gave to KZread. I don't know of any woman who makes me feel so good just watching. Don't know what it is that makes her awesome, but she is awesome. She is and will continue to be my go to videos for comfort!! Nobody could ask for a better mom or wife.

Your Mom had such a Beautiful spirit. She and Mr. Bucky touched so many lives. I'm truly sorry for your loss.

SO sad that Ms. Phyllis has passed away. I know she and Mr. Buckey are in Heaven watching over us all!!! Bless her heart!!!!

You're doing a great job! I can feel her beaming with pride from heaven👍🙋🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🕊️🙏♥️

I'm so sorry for your loss. Phyllis was such a beau6and kind soul. Thank you for sharing your stories

I think we have a new love in Stephen. You are as sweet as can be! Thanks for keeping Ms.Phyllis’ channel going.

I’m sure going to miss them both so much ,but I’m so happy their together again I know she missed her husband so much .

Steven, I am so sorry for your loss! I Thank you so much, I did the crocheted shawl for our Phyllis. I miss having a cup of coffee and watching a new southern recipe. How funny, DILL BALLS, ah ha ha! I'm a swede, and I do believe I know what you're talking about. Kjôtbullar... yeah, you cant put too much dill in them.. allspice is better, Steven! I'm so glad she got the shawl and liked it. Thank you for doing these nice memory videos. I know everyone loves them, I so enjoy hearing these stories too! Phyllis is surely watching over us all and is so proud of you .. well we know she was so proud. How funny about the dog bite. Nice going Steven! Please do keep putting these up - you were so lucky to have her as a mom, and we were so very lucky to get to know just a little bit of Miss Phyllis and Mr. Bucky ♡ Jill

Hello Steven. We appreciate you coming back and telling stories of mom and Mr. Bucky and we would love you coming back every now and then to tell more stories or even you doing some cooking or grilling.

After my mother passed away when I was 27 years old, the Lord showed me the only thing that matters is the love and the memories that were made. Thank you for sharing yours with us. That meant a lot. God bless you.

Your stories bring a genuine smile to my face. I would love to know about the recipes. Please keep all the stories coming about Mr. Buckie, your Mom and the Mid-East...So heart warming, interesting and funny at the same time. God Bless.

Love Phyllis and her sweet heart & the way she taught cooking❣ We'll miss her but know we'll see her in heaven ✝️ ❤🙏🏻💞🌼

Phyllis and Bucky had "goodness" just shining through my laptop screen. I felt like I 'd arrived home when I clicked on one of her videos. Thank you,Steven,for these nice stories. Sincerely,Faith and Tony Falcone

Please, What about a cookbook for in rememernce of Bucky&Ms.Phillis,proceeds going to the School,I would buy one or more, just saying a hint cause I have followed them for years,I think that would carry on there Legecy.

Thank you for sharing your stories with us. Your mother was a wonderful person with a kind heart and gentle soul. She had a unique and blessed marriage with Mr. Bucky. I told my husband last night, although I never met her, I felt like she was a best friend. I loved her recipes, however, her story telling the best. She touched many lives.

I hope your willingness to share stories isn’t an undue burden. Love hearing these insights and is even more endearing. I continue to watch her videos and would love more recipes and please take us on your travels.

-( with tears in my eyes, ) Steven, Sir ; you are an amazing man and I’m sure your Mother and Bucky saw that in you long before you ever did. I cry tears of sadness and joy in hearing your memorable stories. I miss your mom . I like watching you speak and your facial expressions as you do so. You have A LOT of your mother in you. I’d love for you to continue on with any cooking and recipes you have. If that fits into your life and makes you happy, I; along with MANY MORE would very much enjoy those new videos . Much love Mr. Steven and family. Please take care of each other and spread the love.

Stephen, I want to thank you for doing these little videos. They make me laugh, cry, and feel like I knew Mr. Bucky and Miss Phyllis more than I actually knew them from their videos. They would be so happy that you have kept the channel open(I believe you said Miss Phyllis wanted this to help Miss Renee's school/daycare). Thank you. Your mother and Mr. Bucky were so much loved. I can hardly believe they are gone from this world, but Thank you for keeping them close for us all through video. Much love to your family.

Stephen, I don’t know if you can understand this or not because none of us in KZread land actually knew your mom or Mr. Bucky but when she passed away I was so sad just as I would have been if I had lost a family member. They didn’t know us but we certainly knew them. It is so kind and thoughtful of you to record your own videos on your moms channel. I think I speak for all of her fans when I say it is a great comfort to us to watch your videos and for you to reach out to us in this way. I didn’t know Phyllis’s channel helped the children at the academy. That is just wonderful and great that you want to continue to help them through her channel. I usually have her videos on auto play during the day because I know the views help the children. You have the same gift as your mom with story telling and I’m sure you are a good cook too. Again, your videos are a great comfort to us as we also grieve your moms loss. Thank you for keeping her channel going. We love you already Stephen!

Hello Steven, Your Mom was so dear as was Mr. Bucky. There were two videos that your Dear Mom posted that will always make me laugh when I think of them one was Mr. Bucky talking about getting her a Whitman's Sampler for a Christmas gift and the other was the two of them talking about what they were going to have for supper - Mr. Bucky wanted a Harde's hamburger and your Mom was adamant that she wasn't eating that greasy burger!! It was so kind of you to do this video - thank you so much. Looking at you is like looking at you dear Mom... you look so much alike! She was amazing and I loved her exacting nature and her passion for teaching and sharing so much with us on KZread. I look forward to your future video's and stories. You take care and May God Bless You and comfort You during this time of great sorrow. Take Care, Steve. ~kendra

Steven.... Your mom and Bucky raised a fine man. I’m certain they were so proud of the man you became. You are such a great reflection of them.

It's easy to see where you got your awesome southern charm and demeanor. Phyllis was a very nice woman, she made my sleepless nights much easier. thank you so much for sharing your stories and continuing this channel in honor of your mom... Rest in eternal peace Ms Phyllis ❤️

💜thanks for sharing these precious memories! I see your mother looking at you . Sending love and hugs and prayers 🙏💜💜💜

I see a lot of your mom in your warmth, sincerity, eyes, and mannerisms.

I'm back again lol I was thinking,it sure would be wonderful if y'all could put together her recipes in a book. I know I would buy it for sure! And thousands of others would I'm sure! Just thinking about Mrs Phyllis and how I enjoyed seeing you tell about your memories. I hope we can see you often on her channel ! Thank you so very much!

These are beautiful and she will live on forever through these videos.

I am so sorry to hear of Phyllis passing. I started to watch her about a year ago. Really enjoyed her recipes. Some brought memories back when my mother prepared some easy but delicious dinners. I will really miss her and Mr Bucky, My warm thoughts from 🇨🇦

I don't know why, but listening to you tell stories about Phyllis and Bucky..the way you tell it is so much like the way Phyllis told stories. It is bittersweet listening to you, but it is comforting because it's like a little bit of Phyllis is still with us. Thank you for that:)

I didn't know your mother personally and never interacted with her in any way other than watching her videos, but I felt like she was part of my family. My favorite "Aunt Phyllis". Her stories and way of life intrigued me and I enjoyed watching her and looked forward to every video. I'm so very sorry for your loss Mr. Ritter. You resemble her a great deal. Peace be with you sir and keep posting whatever you feel is appropriate, I will keep watching. May God bless you and your family and bring you comfort during this difficult time.

You all were SO BLESSED with beautiful family memories!! I’m so thankful you have those to sustain you for the rest of your life...things you will share with your family and US! Thank you so much!! God Bless you for blessing us!!

I checked socialblade and I was tickled to see our sweet Ms Phillis’s channel gained 3 thousand subscribers this year ! Hopefully that revenue will help her beloved school as Steven mentioned she had hoped . It still seems so strange that she is gone , but she will ever remain in our hearts and we have such sweet memories of our “ visits “ with her through this channel . I know she is so happy to be with Mr Bucky and her daughter Renee’ . I will always remember her advice on cooking and life in general .I keep watching videos and plan on making some of her recipes . My small way of honoring her memory, . I hope others will continue to do the same . If you see this Steven , thank you for sharing this beautiful video . You were blessed with the most wonderful mother and we all loved her and miss her so much ..... hugs to you and the rest of the family 💞🙏🏻💞🙏🏻💞

Hello Stephen, I miss your Mother, and Mr. Bucky, I do feel the loss. Particularly your Mother. I was impressed with her soft spoken, gentle and creative abilities. What a cook! I hope you don't mind my saying so. I do see resemblance to your mother. And when with your finger, you pointed down for viewers to note the school address below. The movement of your hand and position of fingers reminded me of your mother. When she would gesture below. I would enjoy your recipes, and any information you would like to share with us, your viewers.

Love all their videos. I can’t forget when Phyllis rescued two feral kittens and then found homes for them even though she didn’t seem much of a cat person. Or when she taught us how to properly clean melons. Or her trips to buy produce. Her stories about what life was like growing up. The doggies always by Mr. Buckeys side. They will be missed.

Steven you have your Mother’s good looks. Thanks so much for sharing these beautiful memories with us.

I used to watch your mother's videos years ago while in college. I learned pie crust and pumpkin pie and bread baking from her tutorials. I just thought about her recently and decided to look up her channel again. I was sad to hear that she passed away. She seemed like a very warm, family-oriented person. Hope your family is doing well.

Thank you for sharing your stories of your mom and Mr. Bucky. They were such a cute couple, I enjoyed watching your mom cook and how at the end of each video she would show each plate for her and Mr. Bucky. As I was cooking today I realized just how many gadgets in my kitchen were items she would recommend and I bought. My favorite being the Buffalo cups I use everyday. God Bless you and your family.

Greetings from England, Bless Phyllis and Bucky's memory, sorry for your loss, much love.

Sorry for your losses. My dad used to take us to Myrtle Beach every summer. We stayed at the Waterside Motel. Then they built the highrise hotel called the Breakers. I always wanted to stay there but dad said no. I always went shell searching there and found alot of sharks teeth. Found some of the coolest shells. That biscuit video looked good. I will try them. Thanks for the story.....

I live in UK and I loved watching your mom's videos learning some of the recipe's from USA , and trying them for my family , her voice was calming and I could listen to her videos for hours even going back over videos I'd watched before just so I could listen again and again , her and Mr Bucky's relationship was something I could aim for in my marriage , just the way they were together . I will miss her , and I do hope you carry her channel on , love and hugs from here in Nottingham in UK , God bless and keep her and Mr Bucky , and both of her family's , because she made us all feel like family , she had a special gift and if I can be anything like her my life will be worth while , she will be remembered by lots of people.

I just can't stop crying. I didn't know until today that she had passed. Like most of her fans, I never knew her, but I feel as though I have lost a close friend. Your mother was so special. We were all blessed to have been invited into her world through her videos. I wish I could have thanked her.

Thank you for sharing your stories with us. Phyllis and Mr. Bucky hold a special place in my heart. My family has benefited from her knowledge and gift of teaching.

Steven, one of my favorite video's your Mom & Bucky did was on how they met! On that video, she talked about taking you kids with her and Bucky on their honeymoon! Precious story indeed! Please continue talking to us, and as far as her recipes, perhaps have a book made with family photo's for we fans to purchase! Your Mother and Bucky were amazing people and you posting this video helps "we" her fans grieve over her loss! I'd love to have her Biscuit recipe indeed! My prayers are with you all! God bless! (P.S. Thank you in posting your Mom's charity! That will help me feel I am doing something for your Mother by sending a donation!) Peace to you & your brother!

I can still see Phyllis through you. Thanks for keeping her dream alive 😊

Hi you look and sound so much like you mom. Thank you for this video 😊 I would love to hear more stories. And also some pictures of Renee. I was imagining her reunion with Renee in heaven what a glorious reunion that must have been. Praying for you all that you feel the tangible hug from Father God durning this time of letting go. ❤❤❤

Thank you, Steven, for sharing your memories. I have watched your Mother’s and Mr. Bucky’s videos for several years. Some of my favorites were when she would have the dogs in the videos and talk for them 😆. She called herself Mawmaw to the dogs!! I always got a kick out of those videos!! It seems that you inherited your sweet Mother’s great sense of humor. And Mr. Bucky’s calm demeanor. It is so nice to watch your videos. ❤️

Isn't it precious just to see the legacy of such high regard and praise your parents have left the family. That's a legacy money can't buy!!

Thank you Stephen for sharing with us.

I can see you're a Storyteller like your mom. I'm glad you're continuing on with her Channel, I would like to hear the stories and see her cooking or I mean you're cooking LOL

Steven, I love how KZread is allowing so many of us to get to know part youtubers lives. I know that not everything on here is good but I truly enjoy getting to know people I probably will never meet. Watching Mrs. Phyllis and Mr. Bucky talk, cook and tell stories was and still is a great big blessing to me. I look forward to see what you will be doing here. God bless you and your family in Jesus name.

She radiated positivity and joy. She was such a bright light. Her and Mr. Bucky. They are very missed.

Why in the world would 58 people put a thumbs down on this? ☹️ There are some pathetic people on this planet. Always some haters! I LOVE this! You have some same mannerisms as your sweetheart mom. You're as handsome as she was beautiful. I know she surely was very, very proud of you. Anyone related to Phylis and Bucky Stokes is a friend of mine and I'd certainly be interested in any post you do. Love the memories and stories! Thank you so much for doing this. It eases the pain a little for we fans. So sorry for your recent losses, but the beautiful outcome of the Heavenly realm is comforting. God Bless you and all the family. ♥️
