SYLVIA CHAVKIN

Sylvia and Sam were neighbors when I was growing up. I babysat for their delightful daughter, Wendy. I see from her obit, that Sylvia was ten years younger than my mother and 18 years older than I. That may be why we both thought of her as our friend. She did have a hearty laugh and a wonderful spirit. I am glad she had a long life and sorry it was ended by COVID.
