Talk:Sylvia Bloom

Dates of birth, retirement, and death
Looking for help! There are uncertainties and inconsistencies with dates of Bloom's life. The known to me sources: (1) do not state Bloom's date of birth; (2) provide year (2016) but not exact date of her death; (3) a photo in CBC source has exact date of her hire 24-Feb-1947, while her niece claims in the same article hire year was 1948; (4) all sources state she served 67 years until retirement, which places the calculated date of her retirement in 2014 or 2015, while CBC claims she retired in 2016; (5) her age at death is given as 96 by NYT but 97 by Readers Digest; (6) her age at retirement is given as 96 by Forward but 97 by HenryStreet.
