Such sad news. Sylvia was a one off - she was funny, stoic, strong and fiercely loyal to those she considered family and friends. She will be missed.

Rest now Sylv , love from Tina xx

Great memories of Sylvia from my school days going to her home with other school friends of Pat
A big hearted really strong woman I have always remembered
So glad I found out where she was living and sent her a Cornish Cream Tea last year it was great to make the connection and she wrote to me
She always had that wicked laugh !
Fly high Sylvia 💥
