Sylvia Smith
It is with great sadness that we have been informed of the passing of my dear friend and Club Life Member Sylvia Smith.
Sylvia was a very talented ceramic artist and a great supporter of the Club. She produced some wonderful items including “one off” collectors pieces which covered most Toy breeds, although in her later years the majority of her work was for our Club. Mostly working with ceramics, she also produced some gorgeous machine embroidery items featuring the breed.
An excellent cook, Mike and I had some wonderful lunches, putting the dog world to rights on our annual visit, driving to Wales to pick up her latest collection to go on sale at Crufts where many overseas visitors made a beeline for the stand to view and purchase her work. She came to love our breed and her last canine companion is a Japanese Chin who she adored.
She leaves a legacy of items of her work that are appreciated and treasured throughout the world.
We send our deepest sympathy to her husband Bernard and family.
