Her husband had abandoned her and their two babes besides. A darker angel came to her and whispered βsuicide.β Three days before St. Valentines in Nineteen sixty three. Her nurse received no answer there at number twenty Three. Fearful for the children, the nurse had to get inside Police where called and the door was forced, but sadly, not in time. The smell of gas, pervasive, in the room where Sylvia died. Her two little ones were rescued- Her death ruled a suicide.
