Sylvia was a loving mother and grandmother. She enjoyed watching Dillan Play football and of course, was a Razorback fan. Sylvia was an avid lover of nature. One of her favorite things was camping at the lake every memorial day weekend, in the rain! She spent summers on the lake, in the boat or behind the boat on a ski. Sylvia was introduced to horses by husband Johnnie. The two of them spent many years training and racing quarter horses. This is when her true passion for horses developed. She has always kept the feeders full for all birds but was in a constant battle with squirrels! Sylvia was also a wonderful and devoted mother to her spoiled fur babies, Katie and Gabby.
