Creigh D. Sylvester
March 3, 1933 — July 8, 2007
Montgomery - Creigh D. Sylvester, 74, a former resident of Montgomery and Sheldon died on Sunday evening, July 8, 2007 at the Maple Lane Nursing Home in Barton.
Creigh was born on March 3, 1933 in Montgomery, the son of Phil and Emma E. (Parento) Sylvester. He served his country during the Korean War from 1952 to 1956 when he was honorably discharged from the US Army. Creigh was a former member of American Legion Post # 42 in Enosburg Falls.
An outdoors man, Creigh loved nature, fishing, walking, sugaring and gardening. He will be missed for his gentle, loving ways. Creigh had a unique way of his own, helping those in need. His gentle smile and light blue twinkling eyes were infectious for all who were honored to be in his presence. Creigh is already missed dearly by his family who realizes that he will be okay being in the honor of the Lord. They also know that someday they will join Creigh in heaven and, once again, be around his kindness.
Creigh is survived by his sister Virginia Deming of Enosburgh and several nieces and nephews. In addition to his parents, he was predeceased by 2 brothers Phil L. Sylvester and Guy Sylvester and 4 sisters Priscilla Prouty, Eleanor Christian, Mildred Jones and Hilda Wesley.
Funeral services will be held on Wednesday July 18, 2007 at 10:00 AM at the Spears Funeral Home in Enosburg Falls with the Reverend Bernard Bechard officiating. Interment will follow in the Sylvester Family lot at the Montgomery Village Cemetery. Friends are invited to call at the Spears Funeral Home in Enosburg Falls on Tuesday, July 17 from 7-9 PM.
Should friends desire, gifts in Creighs memory may be made to the Franklin County Humane Society, 30 Sunset Meadow, St. Albans, VT 05478 or the Montgomery Village Cemetery, PO Box 74, Montgomery, VT 05470.
Creighs family wishes to thank the staff, doctors, nurses and friends at the Napoli Community Home in Sheldon and Maple Lane Nursing Home in Barton for their friendship and kind and compassionate care while Creigh resided there.
