I´m so very sorry for your loss. It appears from all of the comments that she was a very loving person with a beautiful personality and a beautiful soul. That soul lives on and we will all be reunited with her and our other departed family and friends someday soon. Then we will never be separated from each other again. I am praying for Sylvia´s family and especially her young son. I know he is absolutely devastated. I pray that God will comfort you and help you all to get through this terrible time that you are experiencing. God bless you!

We were so sad to learn of Sylvie´s death. She was such a sweet caregiver at Baysmont House when Foy arrived there. Hated when she moved to Steadman Hill. She was such a cheerful person. Grieve for her family especially those who work at Baysmont House.
