She'd been suffering from cancer. Sylvia will always hold a special place in the hearts of a number of teenage boys in the mid 1970's. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-19990457 <img src ="http://www.celebritiesheight.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Sylvia-Kristel.jpg">
I vaguely heard of her, was she an actress or something was she in any good films - maybe someone can send me a DVD of hermore popular work so I can do some research Seriously though its very sad - she really was too young to be leaving this world already RIP
