Silvia Cant, age 78, of Wauseon, went to her eternal home with the Lord on September 17, 2025. Silvia worked at Globe Weis in Wauseon for many years. After that she spent many years doing agricultural work.
Silvia was born on June 14, 1947 in McAllen, Texas to Andres and Adelina (Gonzalez) Ayala.
She enjoyed singing, polishing her nails, make-up, gardening, sewing, crafting (Silvia was the DIY queen!), cooking, spending time with family and going to church. She loved making things for friends and family for their special occasions. She was also a BIG fan of Michael Jackson.
Silvia is survived by her three children, Cristobal Cant (Lisa Moyer-Wurns), Juan Cant, Jr., and Carolina (Fernando) Andrade; grandchildren, Alannah, Belicia, Cruzificio, Desiree, Jaedalynn, Kainon, Kalee and Sirena; great-grandchildren, Amelia, Ezra and Russell; grand dogs, Mariachi and Bombero (Bomber); sister, Modesta (Jos) Jarquin. She was preceded in death by her parents, husband, Juan Francisco Cantu and her brothers, Silvestre Ayala and Ramon Ayala.
Silvia will always be remembered by her love of looking put-together (make-up, nails, hair, sense of fashion), treating everyone as family and for her strong faith and love in Our Lord God Almighty.
The family will gather with guests on Thursday, September 25, 2025 from 4-7:00 p.m. at Edgar-Grisier Funeral Home, 219 S. Fulton St., Wauseon, OH 43567. Her Funeral Service will be at 11:00 a.m. on Friday, September 26, 2025 at Crossroads Evangelical Church, 845 E. Leggett St, Wauseon, Oh., with Pastor Matt Sauder officiating. Interment will follow in Wauseon Union Cemetery.
