If you’ve ever wondered what life is like after 90, just ask Sylvia Anthony who believes life begins at 90. Sylvia knows what she’s talking about too because in 2020 she was inducted into the National Women’s Hall of Fame. Her inspirational story is one of perseverance and focus. Sylvia believes "the golden years" are a time to gear up and get busy, not relax and take it easy. She has faced many hardships over her lifetime but she says they have made her stronger and more determined. After losing her second husband to cancer she became the founder and president of Sylvia's Haven, a shelter for women and children near Boston. Through her ministry at Sylvia’s Haven, she has helped transform over 1086 lives in the past 35 years! This organization is everything to her, she even calls it her "magnificent obsession!" Sylvia has also authored a book about her life called "Till the End of Time" which was published when she was 85 years old. In her book she tells the story of being born an unwanted child, abused and neglected by her parents but loved and cherished by her grandparents. Her story takes us through all of her challenges and triumphs including an abusive marriage resulting in 3 children, to becoming a single mother and finding love in a second marriage. While she admits that life hasn't been easy throughout the years, Sylvia firmly believes that God not only gives her courage during times of hardship, but also keeps her healthy so that she may realize a dream of hers which is to open up a shelter, Sylvia's Haven, in all 50 states!
