Although I was not in her close circle of friends, I have two special remembrances of her. (1) On prom weekend in 1938 Sylvia and her date were among our small group who trudged to Mount Holyoke for a picnic lunch. l have a little picture of the occasion taken with my "new" 35 mm camera. Jan, I was recently wondering why you didn't come to the picnic; then I noted from your nice biography that you were spending your junior year in France! (2) Sometime during the 1980s we enjoyed meeting Sylvia's husband when they came from Oak Ridge to a Mount Holyoke Club luncheon in Asheville. My husband, Jack (a chemist and also a quiet type), and I had come from our mountainside cottage near Brevard. We had a very pleasant, memorable chat (no picture, though). Tinky, I hope I didn't break any laws by piecing together three excerpts from your Blog to use as the basis for an otherwise scribbled page in my MHC scrapbook. What a lovely tribute to Sylvia.
