Philippa T. Borda (Caputo)
1914 - 2012
Known to us as Phyllis - Mom
- Lifelong Resident of Oyster Bay, NY
- Member of the Greatest Generation
- Parents - Immigrants from Sicily, Italy early 1900s
- Student of St. Dom’s and Graduate of OBHS
- Married 50 years - Mother of 3, GM-3, Great GM -2
Although none of us goes through this life unscathed, in her near century of life, Mom endured many hardships.
Age 16 mos. - Polio left her crippled needing to wear a heavy brace on her right leg.
Age 16 years - Mother is bedridden with a stroke requiring 24 hour care.
Sister, Mary must quit school and Mom helps out after school.
Age 18 years - Mother dies.
Age 21 yrs. - Chose to have her leg fused in order not to wear brace.
At age 5 yrs., her son, my brother , Stanley, was diagnosed with inoperable brain tumor and suffered the after effects of over radiation. Though others urged Mom to place him in a facility when he required total care, Mom chose the “Road Less Traveled” and cared for him lovingly for 40 yrs.
1994 -Husband, DAD, was killed in car accident.
Mom fractures her leg the evening of Dad’s wake and and we spend the night in at Glen Cove Hospital. Mom is put in a cast and cannot attend Dad’s funeral.
1996 -My brother ,Stan, dies of a heart attack at age 45 while Mom is caring for him. .
1997- Mom is diagnosed with breast cancer after a routing mammogran and undergoes a lumpectomy.
Mom lived in the family home for most of her life. Told us of the outhouse in the backyard - where the fig tree flourished for years after. She lived through the “Great Depression”, 2 World Wars , saw her three brothers go off to war in WWII. One of her brothers came back forever affected by the war and had to be hospitalized. Korea, Vietnam, Kuwait, Iraq and Afghanistan followed.
She saw the inventions of T.V. , Computers, cell phones, microwaves and she saw a man walk on the Moon!
Our world has grown darker ... Her shining light has gone out----
But her essence will live within us....the memories, oh what wonderful memories we have!
Stricken with polio at 16 mos. of age - she often endured the taunts and teasing of bullies and the stares of adults. Her life experiences toughened her up
and taught her compassion for those who are different or less fortunate.
Mom truly followed Christ’s teachings.
She could not see a person or animal in need and not reach out to help– whether it be hands on or in speaking out on another’s behalf. Even in the Nursing Home, she would often try to help another in need.
Mom had a zest for life! Along with her passion for the underdog, Mom had a love of reading, politics, current events, cooking, gardening, poetry, the arts and swimming. She grew up on the beach. But most of all Mom had a love for her family. She was a tigress if ever anything or anyone threatened to harm her children or grandchildren.
The Dichotomy of Mom: TENACIOUS & FEISTY, YET SWEET. PATIENT, yet quick to become irate at an injustice. She could be tough and very stubborn on the one hand, yet gentle, humble and modest on the other. She had a wonderful sense of humor, was easy going and loved to laugh till the end. Yet she had a tenacity and strength – where others would crumble.
She cared nothing for “girly” things like makeup, shopping or buying clothes. Material things meant nothing to her at all. Her World was her family!
She was courageous and brave. She was the most decent, kindest, most compassionate and empathetic person I have ever known. We will miss her terribly. She was a shining example of motherhood.....
In the dictionary next to the word “MOTHER” there should be a picture of Phyllis......
My Mother, My Hero!!!!!!

On angels wings
Her soul takes flight
Across the moon
Into the night
Upon the wind
Her spirit has fled
Free from the pain
Disease had bred.
Her soul is in flight
She is heading for home
In free easy grace
Will her spirit now roam
Heartbreak and sadness
No longer exist
She is floating upward
Into heavenly mists
Across the stars
Her soul takes flight
She drifts ever farther
From our sights
She's going home
She'll cry no more tears
Released from the worry
Released from the fear.
Across the dawn
Her soul flies on
A shadow of pink
Greets the rising sun
Her heart is light
Her spirit is free
She soars ever upward
Toward eternal peace
Bound to the earth
An anguished cry
We have no wings
We cannot fly
Blinded by grief
As she departs
Leaving only her memory
Within our hearts.
