Silas S Temple (Lebanon)'s Obituary
Silas S. Temple was born December 13, 2019 in Kansas City, Missouri. He was welcomed into the arms of Jesus on Tuesday, September 19, 2023 at Children’s Mercy Hospital in Kansas City, Missouri. At the time of his passing he was three years, nine months and six days of age.
Silas liked Mickey Mouse Clubhouse music. He enjoyed playing with his siblings and his cousins and loved it when he could be outside playing. Going to the park was a special treat he always liked.
Silas was preceded in death by his grandfather, Randy Routh and his great-grandmother, Verena Temple.
He is survived by his parents, Alexandra Fosberg and Robert Temple, both of Springfield, Missouri; his sister, Lillianna Temple of Springfield, Missouri; two brothers, Luka Temple and Nicholas Temple, both of Springfield, Missouri; his grandparents, Ginger Routh of Hermitage, Missouri, Sue Dorman and Ron Rash of Pittsburg, Missouri; and other relatives and friends.
Silas was a terrific little boy. While Mickey Mouse was probably his favorite character, he also enjoyed playing with his stuffed animals.
While his family will miss their little guy so very much, they have the comfort of knowing he is in Heaven, fully healed and happy. The wonderful memories they made with him in his short life will be treasured forever.
