and later move to a stable employment with the Ministry of Public Health where she was up 
until the time of retirement in 2005.

"Ms Syl", "Nessy", or "Mammy" as she was affectionately called by family, friends and co-workers 
was a God fearing and a praying woman who loved her God, church, children, grand children, in laws, 
community and friends. She will be sadly missed by all.

Mammy sat with her children every day and spoke highly of her God and how she wants us to continually 
stay together and get closer to God. On Tuesday morning mammy said to her daughter Shirell

only to learn later that she just wanted to slip quietly away to meet her Lord.
