Sylvia was one of my dearest friends. She was funny, kind, witty, compassionate, smart as a whip, a great cook, a hard worker, and a fabulous friend. She taught us how to live, and as she faced this illness….she taught us all so much about how to leave this world with dignity and, yes….humor at the most difficult times of her life. I will miss her every day. I love you, Syl…. Ellie XO
Sylvia was a special colleague with the staff at the McLean Community Center. I will remember her smile and her laugh.
