Sylvia Mosley De Baere was born on April 8, 1952, in Greggton, Texas, to Clifford and Dorothy Reynolds Mosley. She graduated from Pampa High School and attended Frank Phillips College before earning her degree from West Texas State University.

Sylvia worked as a medical technician at Northwest Texas Hospital for more than thirty-five years before retiring. She enjoyed bowling, and it was through that hobby that she met the love of her life, James De Baere. They were on the same mixed bowling league and dated for a while before marrying on March 30, 1991, in Las Vegas.

Together, Sylvia and James continued to enjoy bowling and shared many adventures. They spent three wonderful weeks in Hawaii and took a memorable trip to Alaska before her health began to decline. In addition to bowling and playing canasta with James, Sylvia enjoyed creating diamond art. She especially loved gifting her beautiful creations to loved ones for birthdays and Christmas.

She was preceded in death by her parents and a brother Cliff.

Sylvia is survived by her husband James; her sister Janey Keranen and her husband Randy of Borger, her brother, John Mosley of Amarillo; and her kitties, Callie and Andy.
