:)

This is such sad news, may she rest in peace.

yeah it was such a 'different' group she created!

Sorry to learn this sad news. I miss her sense of humor; I miss the fun contests in the Polyvore Detective Agency.

Thanks everyone for sharing your memories of her xo

It's so awful not knowing for sure what happened but there really are far too many coincidences for it not to be our Sylvia, she will be sadly missed. http://www.polyvore.com/sassy_cat_for_sylvia/set?id=37862864

Miss you Sylvia. What a great communicator and supporter of justice and fairness you were. We met ???? internetted on Mydecco and you certainly fought for and achieved much to improve that site. You rose awareness for many charities. So glad to have contacted such a warm kind soul. God Bless Sylviaast sadly missed.

OMG, this must be true... It's unbelievable!! She was such a sweetheart and I know she was 52, because she told me in a pm... What happened?? May she rest in peace... Thanks Valentina for doing this!! x

OHHH, reading posts by @theamaia and @lisa-r it seems bad news. I'm so sorry about that. I remembered her father died, and she was sad.

here's the tag : http://www.polyvore.com/life_for_me_is_not/set?id=37828645

please, poly peeps, make a set for SylviaAst and post it in this group: Thinking outside the box. It is not a contest, it is to honour and remember her ! Thank you, Judit http://www.polyvore.com/life_for_me_is_not/set?id=37828645&.locale=nl

Poly peeps, please make a set for SylviaAst to remember her. You can post it on the group: thinking outside the box. Thank you ! x Judit

How sweet :°(

I was old, tired & cranky! Then I found Polyvore! From Verenigde Staten Joined 3 years ago @ Sylviaast: thanks you for being one of my first polyfriends and for giving me dates (the fruit....) I will miss you, lady

Your words are so sweet! thanks for sharing the friendship you had with her with us xo

O man! I was just thinking of her a week or so ago. I was doing something naughty and I suddenly thought of her shaking her head at me. She was one of my very first polypals and so much fun. She thought it was funny to tease me and tell me people were laughing at me behind my back. Hilarious. She really had a true sense of the "silly." And, she had such a wonderful eye for beauty. We will miss you Sylvia, our sweet and juicy Georgia peach!

It seems to be true :(

OMG ? she was amazing person, are you sure?

So, is it sure?:(

Such a loss, I am so glad that I knew her if only through these sites, I miss her RIP Sylv xxx

@silvia-d se cerchi su internet esce il necrologio.. e molte cose sembrano proprio riferirsi a lei. L'età... poi facendo i calcoli da lla data di morte a ora, è plausibile.. spero di no però! :(

Oddio ma quindi è vero? Che tristezza :(

:( I wish we could say goodbye to her :(

Oh my gosh, that's so sad. I'm really sorry to hear that. And I agree that the peolpe on here, even having never met them, are real friends.

:( Exactly, then here on PV everyone is so nice that you can't help thinking of them as good people

@valentina-amb Very sad indeed.. I didn't know her that well,but you come to think of people you know and talk to on the internet as friends,and unfortunately it looks like we might have just lost one :((((

@triciamcmillan - infatti, non avevo contatti assidui con lei però si capiva che era una bella persona. E poi non sai che fare in questi casi. Neanche ciao si può dirle più :( @midnight-mama :(( it's sad, so sad.. poor her :(

Oh crap,it sounds very much like Sylvia from what I knew of her :(((( .......

mi dispiace tanto:-( io non la conoscevo,ma il pensiero che possa capitare qualcosa alle fantastiche persone che ho conosciuto qui mi agghiaccia,anche perchè davvero spesso non c'è modo di contattarle..un bacione grande

Oh Lisa, I hope it's not true :( But it seems to be.. "part-time job at an Atlanta hair salon, and the need to care for her disabled father." - I knew her father passed away few months ago and then she disappeared from PV :((((

Hi ladies, I was just thinking of Sylvia the other day and wondered how she was. The last message I had from her on here was 6 months ago. I have also found a few sites that look like they may refer to her, one of the guestbook comments on here mentions working in a hair salon https://www.southcarecremation.com/obituaries/obituary.php?id=1780 In an article about Sylvias designs on the mydeco website it mentions her working in an Atlanta Hair Salon so unfortuntely it looks very much like it could be her http://www.lifewhile.com/money/16829218/detail.html Very sad news if it is true x

It was 4 months ago. But Polyvore is weird in time counting.. hope she just got bored and stopped used PV all of a sudden

@theamaia I found that too but I didn't dare saying cause if it's not true then I'd have brought just confusion... @midnight-mama I heard from her last time in May or June.. I really can't remember I'll have a look in my inbox

Oh no...I really hope this is wrong.. I only know her from here and another site we were on together a couple years ago ...I just looked and she hasn't been on there since oct last year... @agathap and @lisa-r ..have you guys heard anything from Sylvia???

Does anyone know if she has been on Polyvore since May? This would be so so sad. Sylvia Ast Family-Placed Death Notice AST, Sylvia Sylvia Ast, 52, of Acworth, died May 31, 2011. Arrangements by SouthCare Cremation Society and Memorial Centers in Marietta (770) 420-5557. Published in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution on June 5, 2011

I really hope it's not her.. that'd be so sad... :( let me know, ok?

Hi I am sure this is our Sylvia http://www.legacy.com/guestbook/atlanta/guestbook.aspx?n=sylvia-ast&pid=151505360&cid=full although I hope it is not I think maybe @zappa may know something or would like to know if this is correct

I hope too :|

Unfortunately I have no news, I hope everything is fine!!!!

Thanks anyway :) I'll let you know

Sorry, I can't shed any light . . .

Ive not heard a thing. Maybe.. hopefully she is just taking a polybreak? Keep us posted please

I wasn't that close either, but I just have a kind of bad feeling.. that's all... thanks anyway xo

I'm sorry I can't help you. I wasn't really that close to her on here. I see from her profile that the last time she was on here, her dad had just died. Maybe she's just taking a bit of time off to grieve. Hopefully she'll be back soon. I'm sorry you're so worried.
