Mrs. Sylvia Stanyer, nee Webb Fowler, was much loved and respected by her family and by many who came to know her. Throughout her life, she demonstrated a determination to live as a Christian and particularly as a Quaker. Her resolution of conflicts, care and attention to detail always left a state of peace and agreement. 
She was also the model for the "Britannia" statue, which her husband made, initially as a junior trophy, but which became the whole-school award after the statue of St. George was broken.
