Publish in a newspaper
John was born on May 27, 1953, in Cambridge, MA, the son of the late Anthony and Agnes (Knox) Silva.
John's first love was his family, but his second love was music. He enjoyed playing the guitar, performing classic rock covers, and listening to his favorite bands; the Beatles, The Who, and the Eagles. John was an avid fan of Boston sports, especially the Boston Celtics.
John is survived by his loving wife of 39 years, Denise (Ray) Silva of Northfield, his son David Silva of Northfield, and his daughter Melinda Lane and her husband Andrew, of Franklin, and his brothers, Edward Silva and Henry Silva. In addition to his parents, John is predeceased by his brothers, Donald Silva, William Silva, Robert Silva, and Arthur Silva, and his sister Dolores F. (Silva) Belinski.
