Sylvia L. Arcoite

STURBRIDGE: Sylvia (Soloman) Arcoite, 78, formerly of Park Circle, Sturbridge, passed away peacefully on Wednesday, April 3, at her daughter's home after a period of illness.
 
She was predeceased by her husband Theadore R. Vilandre in 1996. Sylvia is survived by her children Brian Arcoite and his wife Donna of Southbridge, Bradley Arcoite and his wife Denise of Holland, and Tammy Russo of Port St. Lucie, FL. She also leaves behind her beloved grandchildren Narissa Tremblay, Brian Arcoite Jr., Brett Arcoite, Nathan Russo, Liam Arcoite, Morgan Laliberte, Timothy Robinson, Jessica Leblanc, and several great-grandchildren.
 
Born in Southbridge to John and Jeanette (Demaris) Soloman, Sylvia resided in Southbridge until the passing of her husband Teddy. She then made her home at Park Circle in Sturbridge.
 
Sylvia was a well-known and cherished figure among her park friends. She was often spotted cruising around in her purple golf cart. She devotedly organized the Thursday night pitch league and occasionally indulged in Bingo games. She particularly enjoyed dining out with her children and friends.
 
Throughout her life, Sylvia exuded warmth and touched the hearts of many individuals she encountered. Her infectious smile would illuminate when she spent time with any of her grandchildren.
 
Having worked for many years in the retail sector starting at the Fair and retiring from Wal-Mart, Sylvia dedicated herself to hard work and service.
 
In the last year her health declined, Sylvia moved in with her daughter Tammy who provided exceptional and compassionate care. Surrounded by her family, Sylvia peacefully passed away in her sleep.
 
Funeral services honoring Sylvia's life will take place at Noon, on Sunday, April 28th at the Belanger-Bullard Funeral Home located at 51 Marcy St. Southbridge followed by interment at Holland Cemetery. 
Calling hours will be 10 to noon held prior to the service for family and friends to pay their respects.
