Brother Bill and Family, Right from the start of our getting to know each other she made me feel right in place with the "Supper-Gals of ALA, Post #283", our time together, with Poppies, a Chat here and there. We shared a Friend, Cleve Powell that worked with her at The Corps of Engineers told me she always made sure his coffee was just right. Sylvia was a delight, full of fun and she will never be forgotten by those of us that cared deeply for her. RIP Girlfriend, Susan Taylor Pohland
