To the family: In addition to being related to my late husband, Melvin, Sylvia was a precious dear lady who always had a smile and cheerful word. We credited her for saving our 2 week old grandson's life in Aug. 1978, for which we have always been so grateful. I am sorry I did not hear of her passing until after the services. God bless all of you. Remember, each difficult day that passes only brings you one day closer to seeing her again. Jo Woodiel
