Sylvia was a crafty person. She enjoyed knitting, crocheting, painting, scrap booking, writing, making dolls and jewelry and many handcrafted cards.

She worked many years for JCPenney while raising four children. While working for GTE, she was involved with community projects, involving four community nursing care facilities.
