    I feel like I’ve known Mrs Rose… (but she always wanted to be called Sylvia) all my life. Being friends with Ruby since grade school and spending many sleepover nights at their home, which was always open to us. Then as a PSW, I had the honour of caring for Sylvia when I was living home. We spent many hours talking about the old days and people from our pass. She was the most gentle lady who was so soft spoken. . I’ve cared for many people in my 32 years as being a caregiver, and Sylvia was one of the best.
    I send my deepest condolences to you all on the loss of your Mom, Grand Mother, Great GrandMother. You now have another Angel watching over you all. Cherish your wonderful memories as I’m sure they’re endless. Thinking of you all. Sleep well Sylvia. XO 😇🌹
