Sylvia was a trusted employee of mine for over a decade Lenard was a friend. Privy to her employee I say little. But she had medical issues she managed...she was as responsible as any human could be. Had a great marriage!! I encourage M and E to contact me for a world at Shefrin Dental Lab.......Sylvia was a reason I was a success!!

Mindy and Erica,
I worked with your mom at the Cookie Tree for several years when she first started there. She wasn't much of a talker, like the rest of us, unless she was talking about you. Her girls were her favorite topic and she lit up when she said your names. May God provide you with peace.
