Rosemary Sadlier wrote a sympathy message

“I had the pleasure of knowing Sylvia, her family, when we all attended the same Toronto church. When her family left the church, Sylvia and I reconnected through community initiatives and social events. It was through her, that I had my first opportunity to attend a PUSH Convention! She later moved to Florida, only returning to Toronto at times. But to offer a comment on her unexpected (for me) passing, I am at a loss for words. My deepest condolences to her family and friends. May she RIP.”
