McNabb: Sylvia Frances Peacefully at Hospice Peterborough on Tuesday, April 6, 2021 in her 80th year. Beloved wife of the late William “Bill” for 53 years. Loving mother of Steve (Zoe King) of Toronto, and Tim (Lara McNabb) of Australia. Proud Grammy of Grier, Joy, and Alexander “Xan”. Dear sister of Marilyn (Eion), Catheryn (Allan), and the late Gilbert. Sylvia will be remembered by many other relatives and friends, including her black poodle “Sam”. Sylvia was a Registered Nurse whose 53 year career included work at Civic Hospital and the Medical Centre. An avid gardener and devoted wife, mother, and Grammy, Sylvia’s optimism and good humour cheered all who knew her. Sylvia enjoyed spending summers camping with Bill and their children in their trailer, and later in life enjoyed drumming, mah-jong, visiting her grandchildren in Peterborough and Australia, and a glass of wine each Friday night.
