Sylvia Daugherty, 79, Beaver Dam, Claypool, went to be with her Lord and Savior on Aug. 24, 2025, at her home, after a courageous battle with lymphoma.
Sylvia was born on Aug. 8, 1946, in Emma, Ky., to Glover and Cardella Collins.

Sylvia was a devout Christian and of the Pentecostal faith. She believed in Jesus Christ and shared her faith with anyone who would listen. John 3:16 - "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life."
