These authentic touches help people remember our Mother as the real person she was: Sylvia will be lovingly remembered for her warmth, quiet strength, humor and devotion to her family. She is survived by her children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, one Great Great Grandson and many friends. Sylvia was preceded in death by her Father Theodore Baxter, Mother Alice Baxter Griffin, Sister Rita, Brothers Teddy and Richard, Husband Venie Weather and son Franklyn Weather. Sylvia was the Matriarch of our family and left an awesome Legacy. She was the cornerstone.
Sylvia was beyond her resume-she Loved her family and friends, she was a devoted mother, losing her brings overwhelming grief. Let her story be preserved for now and future generations. She enjoyed church (she was on the Mother's board), she also enjoyed singing, shopping and her legendary Sunday dinners after church with Steffany (the eldest sibling),she also enjoyed roundtrip car rides to her doctor's appointments with Stacey.

We celebrate you Mom, you've successfully balanced a demanding professional life as well as daily acts of love, (you've even instilled that in us).
Sylvia is now resting in the arms of Jesus Christ my Lord--Timothy 4:7 states: I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.
Good job mommy, talk about a crown of righteousness!
Lovingly,
The family
