Moses once said in the book of Psalms that "the days of our years are seventy years and because of special mightiness they are eighty." And having reached 84, it seems Mr. Sylver had a 'special mightiness'. We are sorry to hear about his passing and as he rests, remember the biblical promise that God "is close to those broken at heart and those crushed in spirit he saves."- the Brennans
