Dear Readers, Sun City Insider- August 2025

The Sun City Insider Magazine is proud to be your year-round community connection. Each month, we spotlight local businesses, showcase dining destinations, share upcoming events, and offer light reading and fun puzzles to enjoy with your morning coffee. We’re honored to serve as the platform that connects residents to the heartbeat of this vibrant community.

This month, our featured resident reminds us of the enduring power of passion and perseverance. First gracing our cover in 2021 for her whimsical, one-of-a-kind paintings, Phyllis Hoffman continues to inspire. Now in her 80s, she has published her first children’s book, ‘Adventures of Amy: A Secret Cave’, a heartfelt story illustrated with her own artwork, encouraging readers to “see with your heart.”

Her long-lost manuscript was rediscovered shortly after the passing of her beloved husband, Ron, who was her biggest cheerleader. His spirit lives on in every brushstroke and page. Phyllis reminds us that creativity does not retire, and it is never too late to begin something new – no matter your chapter!

To all our readers, thank you for your continued support. Here’s to staying inspired, staying connected, and embracing new adventures, at every age and every season.

Regards and Happy Reading!
