Patria Fabie Silva, 83, was called home to the Lord on February 28, 2026, at 4:35 a.m., leaving this world gently and surrounded by love.
Born on April 17, 1942, she lived a life woven with faith, grace, and quiet strength. For 62 beautiful years, she shared a sacred and enduring marriage with her beloved husband, Eulalio Bueno Silva, Jr., a partnership rooted in devotion, sacrifice, and unwavering love. Together, they built a family that became her greatest joy and proudest blessing.
She was a loving mother to Eulalio Silva III (Roseanne) and their son Michael; MJ Tam (William) and their children Christian, Matthew, and Katie; Joanne Arreola (Hector) and their son Gabriel; and Patrick Silva (Brenda) and their children Julissa, Fabian, and Patrick Jr. Her love extends through generations and lives on in the laughter and lives of her grandchildren, who were the light of her heart.
She also leaves behind many dear cousins and extended family. Among them, her cousin Erlinda Suan held a special place in her heart. She was a lifelong companion who was like a sister and shared cherished memories from childhood through the seasons of life.
Patria’s 83 years were marked by steadfast faith, gentle kindness, and unwavering devotion. She now rests in eternal peace, reunited with her beloved parents and free from pain, embraced in heavenly light.
Though our hearts are heavy, we are comforted knowing her love remains with us in every prayer whispered, every story shared, and every act of compassion she taught us by example.
May her memory be a blessing, and may her light continue to guide us always.
