Sylvia was a true tzadeikes.. An incredibly hard-working loving mother, always ready to lend a helping hand to everyone and anyone. I don’t think she ever sat idly. She was always busy working and doing mitzvas. A very very special lady!
May she be the one to pull the final strings to bring Moshiach as she arrives in the world of truth!!!
