My memories of Mary (Odette) and Joe and their wonderful children are always in my heart, the wonderful times we spent together when our children were small. She was the kindest woman who accepted me into her family and we were blessed to be Robert's godparents. May God Bless her and her family always.

I will always remember Mary Silva as a kind, giving and loving lady. Her work ethics were admirable. Her level of patience and tolerance was always demonstrated to me as a youth and to her children and grandchildren. She gave life 110%. The gates embrace her and peace is now hers. She will be missed but never forgotten. Love to all the family and friends. Isabelle Tavares-Przypek
