Aunt Sylvia's was a place that the family went to, whether it was to stay while traveling or to just drop by for a cup of tea. She was a kind and loving person who always welcomed you into her home. A perfect example of Newfoundland hospitality, she was always happy to see you drop in and to make sure your belly was full before you left. There was always a piece of loaf, a cookie or a piece of cake to have along with your chat and it was was easier to eat than to say no to her.

Her family was everything to her and her grandchildren; Candice and Adam, where her pride and joy. She loved her frequent calls with them and hearing about what was happening in their lives. Her great-grandchildren; Ryan, Ashtyn Graham and Ty were equally important and she couldn't wait to see a new picture or video or to have an occasional FaceTime with them.
