SOICHER, Sylvia (née Budovitch) - It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved mother, Sylvia Soicher on Thursday, April 8, 2021, in Toronto, Ontario.
Born in Fredericton, New Brunswick on September 26, 1927, she was the daughter of the late Jake and the late Minnie (Hoffman) Budovitch.

She met her husband Jack on a ski weekend in the Laurentians and together they raised their family of four boys.
