Vic Silvey will be missed by all of us. He was a wonderful father-in-law to my sister, Jamie and an awesome grandpa to her and Tommy’s three kids, Peyton, Katelyn, and Paige. He always had a smile on his face and a joyful personality to along with it. He and my daddy, Jim Mullis, used to enjoy sitting on the front porch of my sister’s house reminiscing about days gone by when were all together for holidays or birthdays. Now he and daddy are together again, but instead of talking about the past they are anxiously looking forward to the day we can all join them on the other side, in Heaven.
Save us a spot at the table!
Love you!
