Ian Patrick Silk was born on January 3, 1946 to Francis and Ethel Silk in Bolsover, England. He passed away on November 23, 2022 in his home surrounded by family.

Ian was a devoted family man, husband, and father. He moved to the United States when he was young, and grew up in New York City. He met the love of his life, married her, and moved his family to Texas where he was a resident of Kingwood for over 40 years. His three children - while very much like him in their own ways - took on his wifes boisterous personality. Ian was always the quiet one in the room, but he was always smiling at the uninhibited joy in front of him and likely deafened by the ear-ringing laughter he was constantly surrounded by. He was a dedicated member of St. Martha Catholic Church. His devotion to his wife was never clearer than how quickly he joined Cathy in heaven, having joined her only two short months after she passed away.

He is survived by his daughters Valerie (Lindsay Silk-Kremenak), Maureen, and Catherine (Jody McCarty); grandchildren, Collin and Emily.
