Obituary
Sylvia A. Joseph, nee Scharff
Beloved wife of the late Burton. Loving mother of Ellen (the late Alfred) DiStefano, Vicki (David Burnham) Joseph, and Alan Joseph. Dear sister of Nathan Scharff and sister in law of the late Shirley Joseph. Cherished aunt of Kathy Gaval and Lysie (Steve) Bright. Sylvia was a member of the senior theater troupe, Still Acting Up, in Skokie, for more than a decade. She loved performing - singing and dancing - in the troupe’s original musical productions. Other than her family, performing with the Still Acting Up troupe was one of her greatest joys in life. For the final year of her life, Sylvia received loving care from Armede Lambey and Esther Adeniseun, her caregivers. The family will always be grateful for the love, kindness, and exceptional care they showed Sylvia, especially in the last months of her life.
