I´m so sorry for your loss. For 40 years, he called every holiday without fail a true friend whose kindness and presence will be deeply missed. Sylvester will always hold a special place in my heart.

Sylvester was like a son to my aunt. She loved him dearly. I have appreciated his kindness to her over the many years. He was such a nice man and I will miss his presence for my Aunt. She always spoke so fondly of him. Rest well sir. your other mother Lois Dyson wants you to know ...son in time I will see you again. I love you and miss you.

To the family...I did not formally meet you but if you are anything like Mr. Sylvester I am sure you are kind people, thank you Ms. Mary and the family for sharing such a jewel with my Aunt and our family.

Praying for the Hampton family. Sylvester called me a day before he passed to tell me about his brother Thomas. Little did I know that would be our last conversation. Absence from the body, presence with the Lord. Take your rest as I would call you "Cat Daddy"
