Kendra Leann Silva unexpectedly passed away from this earth on August 4, 2023, at the age of 33 due to unknown causes. She was born in Eureka on January 30, 1990, and has been a long-term resident of Humboldt County ever since.

Growing up, Kendra enjoyed fishing at Freshwater Lagoon, camping on Orick Beach, and riding bikes with the neighbor kids in the alley behind her house. She was a headstrong and independent young woman from an early age, never liking to be told no or what to do. She was a fierce and loyal friend to all and cared for those around her with all her heart. She was always willing to give to others and help those in need without any thought.

Kendra loved the simple things in life. Walks along the beach, watching fireworks on the Fourth of July, and spending time with those she loved. She was never one for material things, choosing instead quality time with those closest to her.

Kendra is survived by her two beautiful daughters, Emily and Leah, her sister Tammy Silva of Orem, Utah, and her boyfriend Richard Ortiz of Crescent City. She is preceded in death by her parents, Ann and Frank Silva, who passed away when Kendra was a child.

A private scattering of her ashes will be held at a later date to reunite Kendra with her mother and father.
