WV, the daughter of Marvin and Cleo Perkins Rader.

She was the last surviving member of her immediate family. Sylvia was a

homemaker and enjoyed crocheting and known for her beautiful afghans and

doilies. She also loved flowers and enjoyed all their beauty.

She is survived by a daughter, Melissa Tucker and a grandson, Joseph Swick, both

of Parkersburg and several nieces and nephews. Two special cousins, Ronald

Perkins of Spencer, WV who she always looked forward to seeing and giving each

other a hard time. Judy Knopp of Mineral Wells, WV whose undying love,

dedication, and devotion to Sylvia went without ceasing. Her number one priority

was to see that Sylvia was taken care of and loved. Last but not least, her cat,

Chloe of 17 years whom her daughter will see she is cared for.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Dewey

Swick. Two sisters, Loretta Whited and Lorraine Jones. Two brothers, Delmont

Rader and infant brother, Jesse Rader.

The family would like to thank her neighbors, the Spaur family and Grace Burns

for being so kind and watching over her and sending such beautiful cards. She so

loved receiving them, also the staff at the Elizabeth Care Center who showered

her with love, care, and compassion and treated her like family. She loved living

there and being around the other residents. Sylvia was loved by so many and was

such a blessing to all who knew her and will be greatly missed, especially by

Vonda McMillan. To her she was always her sweet Sylvia. Sylvia, now you can go

rest high on that mountain.

be held at 11:00 AM Tuesday, December 6, 2022 at Sunset Memory Gardens with
