Sylvia J. Sloan Juve, 88, of Tampa, Fla., and formerly of Clearwater, Fla.,
passed away peacefully on June 30, 2010 at Adam's House ALF, Tampa,
Fla.
She was born in Calais, Maine on March 26, 1922, the daughter
of the late Norman and Ethel (Bellis) Johnson. Sylvia proudly served her
country during WWII as one of the first WAVES. After completing her
Basic Training at Iowa State Teacher's College in Cedar Falls, Iowa, she
was stationed in Washington, DC in the Navy Dept. as a cryptographer.
Later, during the Vietnam Conflict, she reenlisted in the Navy Reserves
for another six years.
Before moving to Dunedin, Fla., she and her
parents were the Innkeepers of the Sudbury Hotel in Bethel, Maine from
1950-1961.
Sylvia is predeceased by her first husband, Edwin A. Sloan,
and her second husband, Bob Juve. She lived in Eagle River, Wis.,
with Bob and enjoyed canoeing, fishing and skiing in the Northwoods.
Sylvia was the best mother anyone could want. She always had the
sweetest smile on her face and enjoyed relating the stories of her time
in Washington, DC. She owned the Chere' Beauty Salon in New Port Richey
in the mid 1960s and was also a real estate agent for several
subdivision developers in west Pasco County. After her second husband
passed away, Sylvia went to work for the Home Shopping Network. She
worked there during its infancy and stayed for seven years.
Sylvia is survived by her son, Edwin (Jane) Sloan of Tampa and her daughter, Norma Jeanne Telford (Chuck) of Inverness. There will be a private graveside
service at Sylvan Abbey Memorial Park, Clearwater, Fla.
