She and her late husband, Alton, were avid travelers, especially to their mountain cottage in Franklin, North Carolina. Sivel initiated the 'yah-yah sisters', which consisted of her sisters, cousin, and close friends where they met weekly for lunch to enjoy moments of friendship, love and laughter as 'yah-yah girls'.
