We married young, far too young but raised a great family.
You supported me through some really tough times as we sought to establish our place in the world for which I am eternally grateful. As life grew easier we lived in a somewhat "fairy" world and enjoyed many highlights and memorable moments. Coming back to NZ after our stint in Singapore was difficult and life changing as we went our separate ways.
That was some 40yrs ago. I am so pleased you have retained so many friends and enjoyed such a full and happy life surrounded by your loving family. Rest in peace Sylvia.

Great buddy to my stepmum Leigh. I first met Sylvia at my Dad Jim's 50th birthday in 1992. What a whirlwind! The life of the party. From that point on you punctuated my life with kindness, advice opinions and outrageous humour.
You visited me in Vanuatu - the bumpy trip around the Efate I will never forget. You sold me my first family car. Visits to your place in Auckland to view the latest encroachment of your beautiful garden into the school grounds. In due course meeting Kathy and my daughters. Hosting us at Paraparaumu. And how wonderful it was to see you meet the love of your life in Darrell! My heartfelt condolences to your family and to Darrell. You shone so bright!!! With love Kalev Crossland

To Darrell, Sonia and Greg, Deidre and Justine,
Loving thoughts from our family go out to you all at this sad time. Sylvia was a great lady, fun to be with and the most energetic 82 year old I have ever known. Every person I knew who met Sylvia would say what a lovely and really funny lady she was. It has been an honor to know her and be a small part in her life.
Much love to you all
Lesleigh

To Sylvia,
As I told you many times cousin your friendship meant a great deal to me and I enjoyed every moment spent with you. I'm thinking now you can enjoy the garden without too much work although I'm sure you'll move the lilies and carnations to better spots and get rid of those agapanthus. I will miss you heaps
Much love and thoughts go with you
