I am so sorry to hear about the passing of Sylvia (Poo). I have known Sylvia for a long time. We worked together at the SCDOR for many years. We really had some good times when we were in our twenties. She was such a wonderful person and friend. God has another Angel with him.

Sylvia was a sweet coworker, and friend. She always had a smile on her face when passing her or talking to her. She always gave help when needed. Sleep in peace sister. You did all you could have done on earth and now it's your time to rest!
