My deepest sympathy to all of Sylvia's family . I have such great memories of Sylvia from our high school years. She was such a fun loving, vibrant person. You couldn't help but love her and want to be around her. My heart just breaks for Terry, Julie and Chad. God bless you as you search to find some peace.
