Sylvia A. Bailey's Obituary
Bailey, Sylvia A., 90, of Largo, passed away unexpectedly on Wednesday, October 2, 2019. She was born in Middletown, CT and moved with her grandparents to St. Petersburg. She was an avid sports fan; always was cheering on her Tampa Bay Rays, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Tampa Bay Lightning. She also enjoyed watching Nascar, going to the movies as well as watching the Hallmark Channel, jig-saw puzzles, word search and Bingo. Long walks with Sylvia down Central Avenue was always a great treat. She was a life-long cat lover. Sylvia never met a stranger; she could talk to anyone, anywhere and about anything. She was known as the “Family Calendar” – always remembered birthdays, anniversaries and would be the first one to call. Later in life, she mastered the tablet and would spend time having fun playing games.

Sylvia also has a large extended family, too numerous to mention individually.
