Sylvester was employed at Kroger for over two decades, where he enjoyed going to work and helping people. There he gained the nickname "Mr. Kroger". His presence will be greatly missed here on Earth, but we know he is joining his Granny, his Uncle Curtis, and a host of other relatives in Heaven.
Sylvester leaves behind his mom, Diana Thornton, his sister, Clarissa Vinson; and brothers, Phillip and Patrick Lewis, He also leaves his Kroger family; aunts; uncles; several cousins; and many friends.
