Burt,Todd,Bob & Family, I know there are no words to soften the passing of such a special lady. I love my Aunt Sylv and will always cherish the memories. It will be difficult not to pick up the phone just to talk to her. We had some crazy funny conversations. Sometimes all we could do was laugh. I will miss her calling to see if the coffee is on ane the time we would spend together. Chad always said she was the toughest lady he has ever met. She has a huge heart and was always so good to me...I will miss her. Now we have our own special angel.

I am so sorry to hear about Sylvia's passing. She was one of my favorite people. She was as beautiful on the inside as she was on the outside. Our condolences go out to all the family. We don't doubt that she and Tootie are having a great reunion on the other side. God bless all of you at this time.

Hi Bob. I am behind in reading my newspapers, and just saw Sylvia's obituary. I am so sorry to read of her passing. I know how much you love her and will miss her. You talked about her all the time at The Big House (USP). I have often wondered how you and she were doing, and if you are still doing your Santa Clause thing around Christmas. You are a great Santa. Keep your chin up. She's with God, and He takes care of us all.

Dear Granny, I know that I have not expressed my love and apprieciation as often as I needed to. You have helped me become such a wonderful mother by teaching and holding my hand along the way of my recovery, I have never met anyone quite like you and Im going to miss calling you when something good or bad comes along as you were the person I loved to share things with. Im going to always remember the time you sat me down and told me that my life was exactly how I made it and that noone could take that away from me. You gave me the courage to do better and learn to love and trust others. I going to tell Paiten how beautiful her great grandmother really was and that you loved her dearly. Im grateful that I had such a touch warming grandmother and I will love you for ever and some. With love I said my last good-byes.
