Sylvia Jean had a heart that was made of gold. She was non-judgmental and accepted anyone and everyone as they were. Her doors were always open, and she never turned anyone away. She had the ability to see the best parts of people, even when they were at their worst. She had a sense of humor that everyone loved. Sylvia Jean was brave, confident and fierce. She had 3 loves in her life: the love of her family, playing cards, and last but definitely not least BINGO! In the words of Sylvia Jean, “I will and always will be the bomb!”
