Visit the Newcomer Cremations, Funerals & Receptions - Winter Park Chapel website to view the full obituary.

Edward H Silas aka (Butch)

Born to Liston and Lerona Silas on 9\24\50

(Butch) Edward was preceded in death by his wife of 45 yrs Dorothy Silas. Edward is survived by his two daughters Shelly Booth, Sabrina Silas. Also, his older sister Sharena Estes, three grandchildren Hailey booth, L Joseph O'Donnell, Skyler O'Donnell and nephew\brother Carl Gustafson.

Butch passed surrounded by the love of his family on 9\29\25

He was a hard worker from a young age retiring out of the Laborers local Union 517.

Butch loved anything with musical instruments, outdoors, fishing, beaching, boating and off-roading in a mud pit somewhere.

If there was one thing he knew how to do and that was to play, just as hard as he worked. He lived a good life and lived it the way he wanted to, no regrets, giving to friends, even when he had nothing to give. There was never a dull moment with him all the way up to the very end. Telling the world "Peace and Love with a little on the side and never goodbye, always see you later, in this life or the next".

The funeral will be held Saturday October 25th at 1:00pm with gathering afterwards until 4pm at Generations Church in Pine Castle. The address is: 1001 Hoffner Ave Orlando, FL. 32809
