Aunt Sylvia, thank you for showing me what true family love and togetherness really looks like. From the days you watched me at your house, to the cookouts, holidays, birthday dinners, and family game nights. Those are some of the most special memories of my life.

You welcomed me with open arms and always made me feel like I belonged. Because of you, I learned what real family love looks like, and that is something I will carry with me forever.

You will be missed more than words can express. You were an incredible wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, and aunt. You gave so much love to everyone around you, and your kindness and warmth will never be forgotten.

I feel so honored and grateful to be a part of your legacy and the beautiful family you helped create. I will carry your love and those memories with me for the rest of my life.

May you rest in peace, Aunt Sylvia

So sorry to hear of her passing. I didn´t know her well. I thought she was a very pretty lady. I believe I spoke to her at a Deaton reunion. She was very nice.
My condolences to the family. From
Ovelia Perry and family
