Sylvia June Clawson English, Oct 22 1930 - May 14, 2009.

Our dear Sylvia left us to meet her maker yesterday, May 14th, at 11:42 am. It was peaceful and painless for her, as we had hoped. Ted, Vickie, Debi, Brian, Zachary, Sabine and Gabby were with her comforting her. We kept her with us until 8:22 last night so most of the family got an opportunity to be with her for one last time and say goodbye. Her brother Charlie said an amazing prayer and we all shared stories and laughed and cried together before they took her. It was how it was supposed to be. We are all going to miss her more than is expressible but we are glad she isn't hurting anymore.
The services will be held on Tuesday at noon at the First Presbyterian Church in Downey. Then Ted and all her kids will be driving her to Nebraska one last time so that her body can laid to rest where her heart has always been. There will be a grave side service at the Curtis Cemetery in Curtis, Nebraska on May 23rd at 4 o'clock.
