Brenda L. (LeBeau) Silva, 62, of Attleboro, MA, passed away on October 14, 2025, at the Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, MA after bravely facing lymphoma, first diagnosed on February 2, 2024. She was the beloved wife of Alan G. Silva.
Born in Pawtucket, Rhode Island on March 4, 1963, she was a daughter of Harold L. LeBeau of Lincoln, RI and the late Helen Louise (Willis) Orlando. She was raised and educated in the City of Attleboro where she was a graduate of Attleboro High School – Class of 1981.
Prior to dedicating and devoting herself tirelessly to her family, she was employed by Sturdy Memorial Hospital in earlier years.
In addition to caring for her family, she was a foster care provider for countless children for over 20 years in both Massachusetts and Florida.
She was a communicant of the former St. Theresa of the Child Jesus Church, South Attleboro, MA and recently of St. John the Evangelist Church in Attleboro, MA.
Brenda returned a few years ago to her native Massachusetts from Florida where she had resided for several years. While residing in Florida, she was employed at Disney World in the food service department for more than ten years. This was her "happy place" that she shared with her children, grandchildren, and foster children.
Her world centered around her love for her family, and she treasured the times creating lifelong memories. Supporting her children and grandchildren, she was always attending their sporting or extracurricular activities.
A self- described "foodie", she enjoyed dining out, cooking, and baking. She was an avid reader who enjoyed camping and was recently excited about enjoying the family's new recreational vehicle.
In addition to her loving husband, she leaves six children: Joshua Silva of Attleboro, MA; Jessica A. Coirier and her husband, Pierre Coirier, of South Attleboro, MA; Jaime H. Hernandez of South Attleboro, MA; Jillian R. King and her husband, Mathew King of South Attleboro, MA, Austin M. Silva of Austin, Texas, and Haley E.
