Hi Sylvie,
A few weeks ago y met up with our beloved mutual friend in Miami and when I asked how you were he gave me the sad news. we talked for a while remembering those youthful days back in the mid 80ties. I was approaching my mid-20tiesliving a vagabond's life in LA and you were approaching 20 with a wide open road ahead to explore.
Both of us worked at Harry's video store, me renting videos and you working the Noritsu photo machine. Huge machine the size of a small car, you were too young to be working it but you, always the consummate professional, printed the best pictures, and Harry was happy that he could pay you less than market salary because you were young and you did not care because you loved photography and was happy just to work the photo processing machine and learn more about the craft of making photographs.
You stood tall, curly blond, Red work shirt and with a mini-skirt explosively outgoing, full of life, energy, and pent-up potential that seemed to have no limit.
Looking back now I am surprised and shocked at how immature and carefree we were back then. Long drives PCH to Oxnard and back via Ventura Highway in your yellow Mustang "Penny", I remember you going to work at a Jonny Rocket in Beverly Hills on roller skates all the way from West LA.
You were truly unique and wonderful. The last time we saw each other was when you asked me if I could keep Princess, your beloved silver tabby cat. Where you were going to live did not accept cats.
You will be happy to know that Princess lived a long and happy life with me, we ended up living at a mountain top in Costa Rica, above the clouds with spectacular views in a big house in the middle of a coffee farm running a bed and breakfast for many years.
Reading the other memories here makes me happy that you were so loved by so many and that you did not change and that you were true to yourself and lived your life on your terms.
God bless you Sylvie.

This is a photo memorial for a beautiful woman who graduated to be with God on October 30, 2021. ****** She had an innocent, guileless heart and a sweet, loving disposition. May this "Delicate Flower" bloom into the full & radiant Glory that is Her in the Love, Joy and Peace of Jesus Christ ! ****** You will be missed VERY much, My Love !! ****** You may view the collage on YouTube at: ************ [ https://youtu.be/5kqdg1uF7os ] ************ This is a revision of a similar collage that I had created on December 12, 2021. It is interesting how it came about !! ****** A few weeks ago, as I was conversing with God, I mentioned that it would be a real favor if I might know how things were going with Sylvie, what she was doing, and if it were in ANYWAY possible, if I might do anything further to express my Love for her. ****** About this same time, I noticed that some of the photos that I had of her hadn't been included, and I also discovered a online site that would do a beautiful job of colorizing the B&W photos that I had used. ****** Then, by PURE accident, I came upon a YouTube video featuring Anne Hawkins performing three of her songs. I had REALLY loved her rendition of "Blue Bayou" (made famous by Roy Orbison). At first, I wasn't particularly impressed by any of the three, but as I listened, their beauty began to penetrate into my spirit - especially the one entitled, "Delicate Flower" !! ****** As I listened to it again and again, it seemed as though God spoke to me, "This was my Sylvie. She was one of my 'Delicate Flowers' who Sin, working through this broken and hostile world, crushed and trampled under foot with its 'hobnail boots' !! She is now in MY garden, where she is healing and growing up into the Special Receptacle of MY Glory, Grace and Beauty that she was created to be" !!

Something compelled me to google your name today. And I found this. I’m soo sorry to hear that she has passed away. I actually reached out to her on facebook a few months back, and although she accepted my request , she did not respond to my message. It pains me to hear that she is gone (from here). I remember her as having many special qualities. We met in third grade and were close friends through our late teen years. As kids, she was one of a handful of us that were very close. We would have sleep overs at her house, in the garage in sleeping bags. She was a spirited and outgoing girl . She was a GREAT dancer with a ton of “soul”. As tweens, we continued the sleepovers and would wake up early and take the bus to Santa Monica beach to boogie board. She was incredibly bright and independent . She had soooo many truelyspecial qualities. She was the first of my friends to have a job. In fact , I was surprised that she was able to land a job managing a pretzel shop at the mall at 16, and she was serious about it. She was an old soul. She was also my first friend to drive and OWN a car— a yellow mustang. In highschool she took up photography and , again, she was very serious about it. She took all sorts of modeling pictures of myself and my sister. She was actually, a professional. She cared about her work— whatever it was that she did. Somehow we lost touch. And reconnected once when I was in college. I believe she was dating someone named Luis? I’m sad to think of her sadness. I remember her as an exceptionally deep thinker. And she was the ONLY eccentric kid that I think ever met :-) I remember that she loved animals. I still remember her voice. Sending her a lot of love .. May she be in a state of constant happiness, and at the very least, consistent peace ??—Tama

This is a good-bye and a remembrance to a close friend whom I had the privilege and pleasure of knowing for the last 12 years. She passed out of THIS world suddenly and recently. ****** I never had a chance to say good-bye to her. She checked into the emergency room at Mad River Hospital about 8:00 PM, Friday, 10/29/2021 and died somewhere early Saturday morning. ****** I never knew until today how much I really cared about her, or what an empty place would be left in my heart and life with her passing. While she was alive, we argued and bickered a lot, and I often thought that sometimes she was rather "a pain in the neck". ****** She was only 51 years old, and I thought that I would be gone long before her. I rarely took the time to express my appreciation to her for just "being her", or to commend her for the thoughtful and loving things that she often did. Even less did I actually TELL her that I really cared for and about her. In other words, I took her for granted !! ****** WE had a little spat before she left for the hospitable, and I thank God that we DID get it cleared up before she left. I will have to live with the sorrow that our last interaction was one of anger rather than one of love. I never saw her again to apologize or to tell her that, "I love you and care about you" !! ****** There are lessons here from God for me to learn and grow through, as there were when my wife left me some 20 years ago. I will again have to take the time to digest and thank God for them. ****** "If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not chasten? Now no chastening seems to be joyful for the present, but painful. Nevertheless, afterward it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it." ** Hebrews 12:7,11 ****** Oh yes, a FREE "Word of Wisdom" for those reading this. If you are as I was, and there is someone that YOU are neglecting and "taking for granted" -- RIGHT NOW -- Run, don't walk over to them and remedy your oversight "while there is yet time" !! ****** I hope and pray that there might be some way that Sylvie can see these final words for and to her, "I DO love you and care about you Sylvie, with ALL of my heart. May you find the peace, joy and love in the arms of God that you never found in this life" !!
