Earlier this month the Washington Parish Sheriff’s Office responded to a fatal crash on Highway 21 in Varnado.
Sylvia Ann Harry, a resident of the Wesley Ray community, was the victim after her vehicle was struck head-on by a van driven by Craig Breidenbach, a resident of St. Louis, Missouri.
Breidenbach suffered serious injuries and is still undergoing medical treatment.
The Louisiana State Police assisted at the scene.
Sylvia was a graduate of Varnado High School and Sullivan Technical College. She was employed for 27 years as a Paraprofessional at Wesley Ray Elementary School. Sylvia faithfully served the Wesley Ray United Methodist Church as President of the Usher Board and co-secretary for Vacation Bible School as well as serving her community as a caregiver.
Sheriff Randy Seal asked all parish citizens to cover this grieving family in prayer as they continue to mourn the tragic and senseless loss of their loved one.
