Karen was born the third of three children to Anthony Silva Sr. and Elisabeth de Bruin. She was born and raised in Windsor, CT but eventually settled down in Seminole, Florida.
Karen was a loving mother to her one and only daughter, Elisabeth. She also was “mom” to many pets. She spent much of her time rescuing and fostering dogs, particularly German Shepherds. She was a very creative person and enjoyed drawing. Karen also enjoyed traveling, the beach, and going to the casino.
Karen was preceded in death by her parents Anthony Silva Sr. and Elisabeth de Bruin, her brothers Anthony Silva Jr. and John Silva, as well as many wonderful aunts, uncles, grandparents, dogs, and friends. She is survived by her daughter Elisabeth Lanzilotta, her son-in-law Garett Lanzilotta and other friends and pets who loved her dearly.
Karen will be greatly missed by many, but we find comfort in the fact that she is free from her health conditions which impacted her for so long.
A celebration of life will be held at Garden Sanctuary Funeral Home, 7950 131st St N., Seminole. FL 33772 on Thursday, July 13, 2023 at 5 pm.
