Robbie & Sylvia's Siblings ~
We are so sorry that Sylvia has passed. When we moved into Brooklyn Heights we found Sylvia to most helpful showing us the ropes. She was always interested to hear about all of our activities and trips and we could ask her for advice.
She was and is a great lady with a big heart and we will miss seeing her around the neighborhood. Now we must rely on memories and she left some great ones.
It is difficult to lose a loved one, but...
