Patty H, just know you are lifted up in my prayers as you grieve your mom’s passing. Also I give thanks for the wonderful person you are and I’m grateful to know you. Lubb U Pat
Aunt Sylvia was always someone I enjoyed being with immensely. We always had fun ribbing each other, and I will miss her. Love to my cousins, Pat, Frank, Rick, Karen, Paul, Pam, and all my second cousins; Andy and Chris; Frank and Amanda; Robert, Shauna, and Tiara; Jean, Amie and Anna; and my third cousins; Tylah and Andy; Wyatt.
My thoughts are with you. May you find peace and comfort in each others love.
I can’t tell of you how sorry I am of the loss your Mom. She was more to me than a friends Mom. She became my kids Nana when they needed one. She will be greatly missed. My only regret is I didn’t get to see her before her passing. Love you Sylvia.
What a wonderful tribute to Aunt Sylvia. The room at Folsom was full will family and friends telling stories they had about her and about growing up with each other. The funeral mass was beautiful. Tylah’s and Andy’s poem were heart felt. Ricky, Pam, Uncle Hank, and cousin Debbie spoke about Sylvia and described her perfectly. The bereavement meal and gathering after the services would have made her proud. She would have loved bopping around talking to everyone. Will miss talking and laughing with you, ‘Sylvia’. I now you are resting in peace.
I love you mom ❤️
