JANESVILLE - Sylvia Binstock Feingold, age 86, died on Wednesday, March 2, 2005, at her home. She was born in Memphis, Tenn., on Dec. 13, 1918, the daughter of Isaac and Rachel (Rosenfeld) Binstock.

She attended Colorado Women's College and graduated from UW-Madison in 1940. Sylvia married Leon Feingold on Sept. 15, 1940, in Denver, Colo. He preceded her in death on Dec. 4, 1980.

With her beloved husband, Leon, of blessed memory, she traveled to many countries and continued traveling on her own after his death in 1980. She was very independent and strong.
