Kristine Silva, 37, passed away March 23, 2026 at her home in West Branch.

She was born February 13, 1989 in Santa Fe, New Mexico the daughter of Anthony and Teri (Goodwin) Silva.

Kristine was the best mom anyone could ever ask for. She was the most caring, loving and unselfish person there ever was. She always saw the best in people and never had a bad thing to say about anyone. She loved her family and her dogs so much. Especially her daughter Chloe, she love and cared for her with her whole heart. She will be loved and missed forever.

She was a loving, caring daughter. She was devoted to her daughter Chloe. They had a strong bond. Our hearts break for her loss. She will be missed dearly. We love you baby girl, until we meet again. Keep smiling your beautiful smile.

As a sister and sister in law she was thoughtful and generous. As a Nina and aunt she was always willing to spoil her nieces and shower them with love and attention. She was beautiful in and out. Her loving light shined bright on everyone who knew her.

Kristine enjoyed playing with her dogs, doing her makeup, and hanging out with her daughter Chloe.
