I’m just getting around to writing about Sybil. I knew her for the past two years and she was a wonderful mother to five sons. I knew Ian better than the rest. She had to rear the five sons alone – her husband left her many years ago and she had a tough time but was a good person. I know God is allowing her to rest now and I’m sure her sons will remember all the things she taught them. This family has suffered the loss of a brother (hers), her Mother who too was a wonderful person and a brother, all within a year. Her mother Ms. Letha was a good mother and grandmother. I pray that God will help this family thru these terrible times.
