Sylvia was born on February 24, 1948 and was raised in Trail, B.C. and eventually met and married her husband in 1971 (David Watkins ~ predeceased). She loved to crochet and cross stitch and play games on her iPad and enjoyed her time in her little apartment hanging out with her friends Bev and Diana. There are many family members that were blessed with a blanket that she made with loving care. As the Matriarch of the family she will be greatly missed.
Rest in peace. Love you Mom.
