I have loved Sylvia Browne for many years. She unknowingly helped me through a lot of low points in my life. This news hits me hard. I'm glad I have many of her books to read and reread.

I'm sorry if this is posted in the wrong forum. I didn't see any other that would be prudent.

Sad!

    I'm not usually one to speak ill of the dead, but good riddance to bad rubbish. The world needs fewer people huckstering people out of their money and hurting people for a quick buck.

    Bet she didn't see THAT one coming.

    I agree with Gemini. She gave false hopes to many people. She was a fraud, honestly. She may have had SOME spirits talking to her, but she wasn't what she said she was.

    ETA: I apologize to the op because they said they liked Sylvia... or a troll.. not sure what.... But if it's genuine, then I'm sorry for upsetting you with my comments.

    Now that I'm a bit older, I can recognize that Sylvia Browne (while I'm not saying she was a complete fake) did actually give some people really bad advice and hurt some people.

    However, she was a big part of my childhood, especially Sylvia Browne Wednesday's on Montel. Because of that, I'm really sad that she is gone.

    Indicted on several charges of investment fraud and grand theft, grand larceny. etc $850 20-30mins telephone session.

    She asserts that the "other side" exists approximately three feet above ground level and at a "higher vibrational level" and that makes it difficult for humans to perceive. Like a number of other psychics, she claims to have been born able to perceive a wider range of "vibrational frequencies"

    So if you miss her just look up three feet and have your credit card details ready.

    Sounds like a real peach (where are you damn sarcasm button)

    I'm sorry I posted this here. I didn't mean to open a can of worms. I didn't realize she was so controversial. I appreciate all of your opinions. If what you feel is true, she will be answerable now that she has gone.

    Thank you,

    Anyone that posted a negative comment should be ashamed of themselves! A person opens up and shares and you all trash someone that was special to them. SHAME ON YOU!!
