Sylvia was baptized a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints at 11 years old in the Salt Lake Tabernacle along with her brothers David and Paul. Sylvia had a strong and abiding faith in our Savior Jesus Christ and served faithfully in many church callings. She found great peace in understanding the Plan of Salvation and eternal families.
On March 28, 1964, Sylvia married Thomas A. Witt, later solemnized in the Salt Lake Temple. Together they have four children whom they raised in Salt Lake City. She enjoyed crafting and taking her children to primary during the week. She served in many Primary Presidencies in various positions. As her children got older, she spent her time involved at their school as a room mother and eventually in various presidencies and positions in the PTA.
