Not sure what to say?

Sylvia leaves us with a shining example of how to make this world a much better place having lived in it!

Sylvia was my rock, my mountain. A place where I can hide, a place I call home. With her, I see light, even in the dark. With her, I feel love, even through time and distance. I've been blessed to be loved by Sylvia. In the life. And in the next, because I believe, that knowing Sylvia was not by chance. It was fate. That God had blessed me to have her, to love and to cherish, forever. You are missed dearly, my sis, my pride and joy. I love you so much.

"Rest In Peace....she gave me a chance to express myself and always believed in me she will be forever missed. I met her during my early years in high school today I am 26 years old.

Sylvia was one of a kind -- immersed in quiet brilliance, thoughtful activism, contemplative movement. She was brass tacks practical, never afraid to toil or get her hands in the soil. She was pivotal to creating, having a home base, and growing numerous groups -- including Diverse CIty Fund. What a joy to know her! Thanks to the family for sharing her with the community. All who knew her loved her and found inspiration.

The activist community very much appreciated the support that Sister Sylvia gave. She will certainly be missed by all of the different groups, that she helped over the years. She was a great, outstanding, wonderful Sister. Rest in Power Sister Sylvia.

Sylvia was the best. She was a champion for all people and she will be missed greatly.

RIP my sister...
