I was devastated when I saw that Sylvia had went on to her eternal home. We worked together at Methodist and formed a bond during that time. I had mentioned her last week not knowing that this had taken place. My heartfelt condolences are shared with her family during this difficult time. I pray that God gives you great comfort as you remember her beautiful spirit.
