Sylvia Heimann Obituary
Mrs. Heimann was born April 4, 1936 in Ponce, Puerto Rico, a daughter of the late Apolinario and Justina (Del la Romerio) Santiago.

Surviving are her husband, Ralph R. Heimann of Rochester; children, Ericus Santiago of Spencerport, Iris Rodriguez of Columbus, Ohio, and Terry (Teresa Crewe) Heimann of Greece; grandchildren, Monique, Andrew, Manny, and Judah; brother, Tito; sister, Martha. Several nieces and nephews also survive.
Along with her parents, Sylvia is reunited in death with her grandson, Andrew; and siblings Juan, Catalina, Maria, Margirita, Umberto, and Gualberto.
