Not sure what to say?

Although I never was privileged to meet Silvia I can feel her energy, light, and kindness which has been gifted to me through her wonderful daughter Jane. Jane's love of community, her gentle spirit, her intelligence, and her wit are all reflections of the wonderful life of her mother. May Silvia be bound up in the bonds of life.

Matthew..so sorry for your great loss. You were lucky to have such a cool mom and for so long. Sending thoughts from Indonesia..regards to your family too.

I met Sylvia at the nursing home where my parents were also residing until their passing in the last two years. I am sorry for your loss. She was a very interesting person and extremely sharp for one of her advance years. I enjoyed talking with her during the meal times with my parents. I know she will be missed very much and may God comfort you and your family in your time of sorrow. My sister, Cathy, told me about her passing.

Sylvia was my father [Louis Werner's] sister and the last link to the generation of my parents. she was a modest but accomplished woman who leaves a remarkable legacy of her own accomplishments, chilrdren, grand children, and geratgrandchildren...We remember her fondly and with love

Sylvia was a leader of our congregation and a devoted member for ever so many years. Her contributions to the Temple helped make our congregation the success it is today. She was a delightful, caring, ever so special person. It was a privilege and an honor being her rabbi. She will be sorely missed by all who knew and loved her. May her name be a blessing now and forever. Rabbi Howard A. Simon
