<p><b>I asked Sylvia's SO, Dan, (good name, Dan) if he would send me some pictures of Sylvia so we could know her better. Syl had sent me one many months ago, but I was unable to find it on my pc. Sylvia is a very pretty woman whom I will dearly miss. Here, my friends, is our departed friend, Sylvia. Love ya, Syl.</b> </p> <p><b><img src="http://www.wdwinfo.com/sites/sylvia/2a.jpg" width="650" height="400"></b></p> <p><b>This is a picture of Sylvia and Dan. They were together for 4 1/2 years, Sylvia was ill for 3 1/2. According to Canadian law, they actually were common law married. I have talked quite a few times over the months to Dan also, again first on ICQ, then on the phone in recent months. He has been a stalwart rock of support to Sylvia all along. He apologized for the shadow here on Syl.</b></p> <p><b><img src="http://www.wdwinfo.com/sites/sylvia/2aa.jpg" width="590" height="487"></b></p> <p><b>This picture is of Sylvia, Nick, and Dan's DD, Emma.</b></p> <p><b><img src="http://www.wdwinfo.com/sites/sylvia/2aaa.jpg" width="323" height="487"></b></p> <p><b>What a great picture of a great lady!!!! This picture was taken about 6 months before Sylvia was diagnosed with breast cancer. </b></p> <p><b>Sylvia loved the outdoors and animals.<img border="0" src="http://www.wdwinfo.com/sites/family/kitty.gif" width="19" height="18"> She was especially fond of otters.</b></p> <p><b><img src="http://www.wdwinfo.com/sites/sylvia/2bb.jpg" width="650" height="480"></b></p> <p><b>So tough to look at.<img border="0" src="http://www.wdwinfo.com/sites/family/frown.gif" width="15" height="15"> This one also was taken shortly before she was diagnosed. </b></p> <p><b>What a great picture of Sylvia and little Nick.</b></p> <p><b><img src="http://www.wdwinfo.com/sites/sylvia/2c.jpg" width="567" height="487"></b></p> <p><b>This picture is of Nick on the left, Dan's DD's, Emma, behind Nick and Ava, to his left, and Jamie, one of Sylvia's cousins. </b></p> <p><b>That ice cream sure looks good.<img border="0" src="http://www.wdwinfo.com/sites/family/icescream.gif" align="texttop" width="18" height="48"> I hope to have a few more later in the week. Thanks, Dan, for sharing Sylvia with her DIS family. We will miss her dearly.</b></p> <p> </p>

Thank you so much for posting these Dan and thanks to Sylvia's Dan for sharing them.
Sylvia looks so happy in all of these photos and that's how we should remember her, I think. Thanks again! |

Thank you both very much.............
My sincere sympathies to Sylvia's Dan and for being so kind to share these with us during what must be an extremely hard time for him.
We are glad Sylvia's suffering is over,but so sad and angry that she had to go thru this at all. A special light in our lives has gone out. We will miss her dearly. And Thank you Dan Murphy,as always, friend. I like the blonde fishing picture best as that is what I expected her to look like. Having seen pictures of Nick in the past ,I figured he got his good looks from his Mom. Now I can picture her smiling. It helps ease the pain in my heart. Hugs, Marilyn

Thank you, Dan. I've been "gone" in WDW for a week now but, Routeman Dan was the 1st to inform me of our loss and I'm really saddened by this, my 1st night home!
I truly feel for her son and Her Dan and Dan's child as well! They will ALL miss her greatly, as will we!
