"Mom was a sweet and loving presence in the lives of her family and friends. She was a super cook, great mother and an avid Eagles fan. A beautiful woman with a four fingered whistle that could split your eardrums. She never met a steak she didn't like and loved her "Rosey" burgers. She was unselfish and always had a kind word and smile for everyone. She was especially grateful for the company and love of her darlin' "adopted" grandsons, Chris and Alex. She will be dearly missed."Sylvia was a graduate of the former Lititz High School and was nominated "Queen of Candles" during the Lititz Fourth of July Celebration in 1947.
