February 15, 2008Sylvia Landon Vaill King, 95, of South Easton, died on Thursday, Feb. 7, 2008 after a long, well-lived life. She has been living with her daughter, Susan Plante, in South Easton. She was the wife of the late Francis Rogerson King who died in 1985.
Born Dec. 11, 1912, in Winsted, Conn., she was the daughter of the late Dudley Landon Vaill and Leila Strobridge Holmes Vaill. She was the sixth of eight living children. She attended the Gilbert School in Winsted 1927-29, Miss Porter's School in Farmington, Conn. 1929-1931, the Packer Collegiate Institute in Brooklyn, N.Y., 1931-32 and the New York Post Graduate Medical School and Hospital, 1933-an affiliate of Columbia University. She studied biochemistry, bacteriology, hematology and serology. After meeting her husband in 1946 at her family home in Winsted, she wed him a mere six months later on June 29, 1947 and moved into a rustic old farmhouse on 60 acres on Smith Hill in Winsted. They moved to Cheshire, Conn., in 1951. In 1954 the family relocated to Meriden, Conn. In 1961 they built the South Wellfleet house and moved there permanently in 1971. Faced with declining health she moved to South East-on in July 2006 to reside with her daughter, Susan, and her family.
Mrs. King was employed by the New York Post Graduate Hospital 1933-37 as a diagnostician and clinical assistant to Ward J. MacNeal, MD. She received an appointment to the faculty of Columbia University as an Assistant in Bacteriology in Oct. 1935.
After some European travels, she attended the American School of Design in New York 1937-38 and became a free-lance designer for book jackets and advertising layout. During World War II 1942-45, she was employed as a draftsman by Guided Radio Corp. in New York. Upon her return to Winsted in 1945, she did research in amino acids for the Keratene Co.
After her husband's death in 1985, Mrs. King continued to bowl weekly and remained active in the Chequessett Yacht and Country Club, becoming somewhat of a legend as she continued to carry her own clubs into her late 80's. She did consent to using a golf cart in her 90's and played until 93. She was known for her fanciful and hilarious costumes for the Halloween parties and was once seen jumping out of a giant cake for a birthday celebration.
Mrs. King leaves her three children, Susan Holmes King Plante, Carolyn Rogerson King Everett and Thomas Vaill King; eight grandchildren, Leila Holmes Everett Macauto, Kirsten Kampton Everett, Jonathan Vaill King, Anna Rivard King, Daniel Rogerson King, Rebecca Duchesnes King, Andrew Rogerson Plante and Megan Vaill Plante and numerous nephews and nieces.
