North Woodbury - Sylvia Mae Meadows, 89, passed away on Tuesday, June 24, 2025, surrounded by family at Liberty Nursing Center in Mansfield, Ohio.
She was born May 23, 1936, to the late Garcie and Nina (Wyatt) Keen in Raven, Virginia. Sylvia married her late husband, Ralph C. Meadows, on September 13, 1952, and moved to Morrow County where she cared diligently for her family as a stay-at-home mom and homemaker. Sylvia spent countless hours gardening and preserving food for her family. Family recalls favorite foods and traditions when they think back over Sylvia's life and influence. Her granddaughters share Thanksgiving traditions and "cooking lessons" as memories they will cherish. The family fruit cake recipe will be missed by some but not all. Sylvia was an excellent cook and was always prepared to host family and friends from church in her home.
She was a member of the North Woodbury Free Will Baptist Church and attended faithfully until her health prohibited attendance.
