Marilyn Jean (Welsch) Silva

Marilyn J. Silva was a beautiful special gift to all who knew her.  Her husband Henry Silva preceded her in death in 1990.  She was born in El Paso, Texas to the union of Gladys and Fred H. Welsch.  Marilyn passed away due to natural causes.

She is survived by daughters Sharon LeVario, Linda Saenz, Tina Strawn and son Fredrick Willis.  Her daughter, Carol De La Paz preceded her in death.  Marilyn’s siblings are Fred Welsch, William Welsch and Betty Amburn who preceded her in passing.

Marilyn was blessed with 17 grandchildren, 14 great grandchildren and 2 great-great grandchildren.

Marilyn was a personable soul and she never met anyone whom she couldn’t connect with.  Loving one and all was her motif in life.  There was nothing she wouldn’t do for others.  Her laughter and joy were contagious both to her family and friends.

Her neighbors and friends became like family to her whether she lived in Los Angeles, California, North Richland Hills, Texas, El Paso, Texas, Rancho Cucamonga, California or McKinney, Texas.  She emanated warmth, love, kindness and concern to all she met.  She will truly be missed.  We love you Mom!
