My mother retired, so I go into her contact and delete her work number, work cell, and fax. Close the contact and open it back up, and they are right there. Why won't they delete?

Where might her contact information be housed?
Check Settings > Accounts & Passwords. What accounts, if any, show "Contacts"?
Are you certain you actually edited and deleted and saved the contact?

iCloud and Google
Ahh, you house contacts in more than one place. That's typically not a good idea.
So likely you're changing your mother's information in one place and viewing it in another.

What does "it" mean?
A much better solution, however, is to house your contacts in exactly one place and not two.
how do I get it out of both?
"It" means the numbers I am deleting. Not deleting the contact, just the extraneous numbers. I will turn off Google and then try it again.
Phone numbers deleted reappear as soon as I refresh
