In addition to his children, Silas is survived by a host of grandchildren, great grandchildren, nieces, nephews, other family, and friends who consider him family. Silas Pennington was a man of great faith who loved the Lord and his church family, Berea Christian Church. He was a long time elder and board member and always finding ways to serve the church as well as White Mills Christian Camp. Silas loved and was loved by his family. The Master Mechanic was a Jack-of-all-trades and Master-of-all and was constantly fixing things for anyone who asked. A multi-talented man, Silas was also an excellent whittler, creative clock maker, canner of tomatoes, jellies, and jams, and cook (which was a good thing since he loved to eat). He will be missed greatly. The family has entrusted Cone Funeral Home (1510 Campbell Lane) with arrangements.
