    We were sad to hear of Sylvester’s passing and wish to express our condolences to all his family. He spent two winters re-designing our home in Cannings Cove and every time we look at his work of the beautifully designed arched doors and the excellent craftsmanship of his carpentry skills, we will always have his memory with us. May he rest in peace.
