Silvestra was very involved in her children’s sports.  She helped by sponsoring and transporting them to out of town games and cheering them on.  She loved her children’s sports and of course later her grandchildrens.

She also loved animals.  She would feed all the strays and anyone else’s animals if they were going to be out of town or happen to wander into her yard.  She usually had 2 or 3 dogs at a time and a cat or two.  Being the eldest, she was a hero to all her siblings.  She was always there to help them all.  She taught them by example through her hard work and honesty.  She was always THERE.
