Lis

Edward J. Lis “Ed” born June 26, 1955 passed away peacefully in his home on February 24, 2026 after a courageous battle with several health issues. Ed was the beloved husband of Renee (nee McDevitt) for 47 years and a devoted father to Colleen (Mike). He was a proud and dedicated Pop-Pop to Grace and Jack. Cherished only child of the late Edward and Betty Lis.

Ed grew up in the Port Richmond section of Philadelphia and attended Northeast Catholic high school. He began his career on the waterfront as a longshoremen at the age of 18 until his retirement at the age of 63.

Ed went through this world with a quiet calm about him. He would always greet everyone with a smile on his face and with a kind word. Ed was very generous with his time and was always ready to lend a helping hand or be a listening ear. He was unapologetically himself and the king of one liners.

Ed enjoyed a perfectly coordinated outfit, good food, vacations, and trips to Atlantic City with his “number one teammate.” As an only child, Ed cherished his friendships. There was always time for “one more” or an after party. Above all else, Ed enjoyed being surrounded by his little close knit family. As an adoring Pop-Pop nothing mattered to him more than spending quality time with his grandkids. His presence will be forever missed!

Family and Friends are invited to a visitation to celebrate Ed’s life Saturday March 7th 9:30am-11:00 AM at Our Lady of Calvary Church, 11024 Knights Road, Philadelphia, PA 19154 followed by his Funeral Mass at 11 AM.

In lieu of flowers or donations, Ed’s family asks that you “pay it forward” and help out a friend, family member or perfect stranger as Ed always loved to do.

Silva

Veronica "June" Silva passed away peacefully on February 14, 2026, surrounded by the love of her family. Born in Dorking, England on June 29, 1943, she was the daughter of the late James Lewis and Cynthia Barber. June immigrated to the United States in 1945 at just under 2 years of age and always held her British heritage close to her heart.

June's primary career and main source of pride was the role of loving mother and grandmother. June married the late Jose Manuel Silva in 1966 and although divorced they continued to care for each other until his death in 2021. Together they had 3 beloved children Colombia Iannelli (Steve), Britannia Robinson (John) and Jose Amador Silva. Her dedication to family did not prevent her from earning a Bachelor of Arts degree from Holy Family University while raising them. June was blessed with 3 grandchildren Sofia, Olivia and Aiden who were the greatest joy in her life. She cherished being able to babysit for them during her 70's. June is the beloved sister to Rosalind Hernandez and the late Bernard Lewis. She is further survived by many in-laws, nieces and nephews both here and in Colombia who she loved dearly.

June was blessed with the love and dedication of friends who were like family and was commonly referred to as everyone's mother. Many memories were made around the dinner table where you could pull up a chair and enjoy great laughs served with a home cooked meal. June was a fabulous cook, she could whip up a great soup using just a potato, an onion and a lot of love. She was able to master cooking foods native to her husband’s Colombia as well as from her birthplace in England.

June was an avid genealogist who enjoyed researching her family history, which allowed her to connect with many cousins in England. She loved helping others research their family lineage and locate their long-lost relatives as well. June was also an animal lover having had many pet companions throughout the years including dogs, cats, rabbits and 3 ferrets.
