 For more than three decades, Sylvester Troxler Sr. has been a vital presence in his Petworth neighborhood, extending a warm welcome to family, friends and neighbors with a spirit of generosity that is increasingly rare. In a city frequently burdened by political and personal stress, Mr. Troxler and his beloved late wife, Kathleen Troxler, consistently offered a sense of calm, kindness and steadfastness. It was not uncommon to see Mr. Troxler tending to his garden or mowing his lawn, and often those of his neighbors, without seeking anything in return. He consistently demonstrates a friendly demeanor, always ready to offer an encouraging word or lend an ear to the neighborhood children as they discuss their sports activities.
