We would like to thank the staff at Heidehof for all their help, care and compassion for Sylvia both in the independent living section and the assisted care side. You all made her life better and enjoyable. We would also like to extend a huge thank you to the staff of the St. Catharines General Emergency department and the Palliative care unit for their exceptional care and compassion our mother received during her last days. You are all true heroes.

Due to the COVID-19 restrictions the immediate family will be having a private service and will be hosting a Celebration of Life for Sylvia at a later date when all can attend and remember her.

In Lieu of flowers the family is requesting that donations can be made to either the Heidehof Benevolent Fund, the Palliative Care unit of the St. Catharines General Hospital or the Alzheimer’s Society.
