Jose Salvador Silva Garcia

June 4, 1951 — June 11, 2024

Jose Salvador Silva Garcia was born June 4th, 1951, in El Mesquite Grande, Jal, MX. and passed on June 11th, 2024, in Malin, Oregon. Salvador’s parents were Maria De La Luz Silva Garcia and Salvador Silva Tovar. Salvador was the fourth of eight siblings. He migrated to the US in 1978, where he spent the remainder of his years in Malin, Oregon.

Salvador is survived by his loving wife, Maria Del Carmen Silva and four children, Rosa Isela Christensen, Salvador Israel Silva, Ivan Silva, and Melissa Buresh. He & his wife were very proud of celebrating one of their largest milestones, their fiftieth wedding anniversary, with their family and friends. Of all the roles he took on, he loved being a grandfather. His six grandchildren were his pride and joy. To them and his children, he was a shining example of what strength, tenacity, hard-working, humor, and a little stubbornness could do. Cecilia, Gabriel, Emma, Isela, Andrew, and Sofia will miss their Grandpapa, Grandpa, and Papu.

Salvador was many things in his life; a son, a sibling, a husband, a father, a grandfather, a godfather, a farm worker, and retired as an equipment operator. He was a devoted member of St. Augustin’s Catholic Church, loved to fish, travel, spend time with family, and watch his favorite soccer team “Las Chivas” de Guadalajara.

Salvador was a very loving individual and he cherished his friendship. He was mischievous at heart, loved a good laugh, eat oysters, and the biggest supporter of his family’s achievements.

Salvador and Carmen Silva resided in Malin, OR since 1987.

Our loving Papi will be dearly missed.

A private memorial will be held on Sat June 22nd at St Agustine Catholic Church commencing with a Viewing 1 p.m., Mass 2 p.m., and Burial at Malin Community Cemetery.

José Salvador Silva García nació el 4 de junio de 1951 en El Mesquite Grande, Jal, MX. y falleció el 11 de junio de 2024 en Malin, Oregon. Los padres de Salvador fueron María De La Luz Silva García y Salvador Silva Tovar. Salvador era el cuarto hijo de los ocho hermanos. Emigró a los Estados Unidos en 1978, donde pasó el resto de sus años en Malin, Oregon.

A Salvador le sobreviven su amada esposa, María Del Carmen Silva y sus cuatro hijos, Rosa Isela Christensen, Salvador Israel Silva, Ivan Silva y Melissa Buresh. Un gran momento del que él y su esposa estaban muy orgullosos fue celebrar su quincuagésimo aniversario de bodas con su familia y amigos. De todos los roles que asumió, lo que más le gustaba era ser abuelo. Sus seis nietos eran su orgullo y alegría. Para ellos y sus hijos, era un brillante ejemplo de lo que podía hacer la fuerza, la tenacidad, trabajar duro, el humor y un poco de terquedad. Cecilia, Gabriel, Emma, Isela, Andrew y Sofia extrañarán a su Grandpapa, Abuelo y Papu.

Salvador fue muchas cosas en su vida; un hijo, un hermano, un esposo, un padre, un abuelo, un padrino, un trabajador agrícola y jubilo como operador de máquina. Era un miembro devoto de la Iglesia Católica de San Agustín, le encantaba pescar, viajar, pasar tiempo con la familia y ver a su equipo de fútbol favorito “Las Chivas” de Guadalajara.

Salvador era una persona muy cariñosa y apreciaba sus amistades. Era travieso de corazón, le encantaba reírse, comer ostiones, y era el mayor apoyo de los logros de su familia.

Salvador y Carmen Silva residieron en Malin, Oregón desde 1987.


Extrañaremos muchísimo a nuestro querido Papi.

Se llevará a cabo un funeral privado el sábado 22 de junio en la Iglesia Católica de San Agustín, comenzando con una Velacion a la 1 p.m., una Misa a las 2 p.m. y el Entierro en el Cementerio Comunitario de Malin.
