Sylvia Jean (Goldstein) Meeker

Sylvia Jean Meeker, 73, of Maumee, passed away peacefully on Friday, December 11, 2020. She was born in Toledo to Seymour and Luella (Jackson) Goldstein on September 20, 1947. Sylvia met the love of her life, Lyle Meeker, in August of 1969, and they were married shortly after. The two of them were inseparable; enjoying every minute of their lives together. Sylvia worked for 36 years for the United States Postal Service as a window clerk. She brightened the lives of every customer that entered her facility. Sylvia enjoyed going on road trips with her family and friends, especially to see the fall colors in Northern MI. It was a treat to spot an eagle and Sylvia was always the first to spot one. Her cheerful disposition could always lighten the mood and uplift everyone around her. Sylvia is survived by her loving husband of 51 years, Lyle; sisters, Sharon (Goldstein) Drake, Martha Goldstein; nephew, David (Mandy) Drake; great-niece, Maddy Drake; many cousins and a special thank you to cousin Mike Fortress for all of his love and help; brother-in-law, Jerry (Kathy) Meeker; many other close family members; and countless dear friends.
