Sylvia welcomed me in her home as a new immigrant from Lebanon and showed me that you can build a successful future full of love and happiness. She took the time to talk to my children and get to know them. She made my wife then feel at home in a middle eastern home. Her embrace and her smile were infectious. I will always cherish the times we had in her company. Until we meet again
