Later in his life, he resided in Lunenburg, Virginia with his companion, his significant other, Ms. Lula Jones.
Sylvester was a loving and hard working man, father, brother, uncle, cousin and friend to many. He will always be remembered for his big heart and smile. His passion for cars was undeniable; from a hot rod to cruisers, he knew it all. In his words, “If my ride ain’t clean then I don’t feel right driving it!” He also had a love for construction work that was proven by his work history with several paving companies.
Sylvester was preceded in death by his wife, Carolyn R. Anderson; His parents, Percell and Mary Anderson; and his mother and father-in-law Lunceford and Mary E. Robinson.

He also leaves devoted friends and boss, Sherman Lessane, Al and Gloria.
Your long road traveled has come to an end; no more worries and no more troubles. Peace at last! Your life is a beautiful memory, your absence a silent grief; you now sleep in Gods lovely garden in the sunshine of perfect peace.
