We are so, so very sorry to read of Sylvia's passing. She was such a very dear friend and neighbor to us. Always a smile and conversation when we would see each other. I will keep my fond memories of Sylvia in my heart forever and will always think of her when I see the color purple. Archie and family, if you need anything, do not hesitate to call us. Our deepest sympathies to you all. Dale $ Debbie

Archie and family, We are so very sorry for your losses. What an unimaginable time this must be for you all. We love our visits from "the girls" when they came to California to visit! Sylvia was one of my favorite cousins and her laugh was infectious! Keep you all in our thoughts and prayers at this very difficult time. Donna Spitzer Lopes
