MIDDLE FALLS, NY — Doris (Plue) Spiezio, 92, of Middle Falls took her final journey on Thursday evening, February 18, 2016 to meet her husband Harold P. Spiezio Sr. who passed in 2013. Doris left from her home to take this final journey with her loving family by her side.
Born December 23, 1923 at Mary McClellan Hospital in Cambridge, NY she was the daughter of Edward and Bertha Plue of Schuylerville.
Doris became the wife of Harold P. Spiezio Sr. who was the love of her life on February 13, 1942 and they spent 71 wonderful years enjoying family, friends, and life until his passing. Doris was a full-time mother to her five children and only after they had all made lives of their own, she went to work for the Washington County Sheriff Department as a cook for the jail and a matron for several years.
She was a life member of the VFW Auxiliary and the Elks in Greenwich, and the Middle Falls Fire Department Auxiliary in Middle Falls.
Her passion in life was her husband, her five children and their families. She enjoyed a cup of coffee and the company of friends and neighbors. She would tell some truly funny stories about her family that would make you laugh until your belly hurt. Her door was always open to the young or old, she would always greet you with a smile and a piece of cake, pie, or even dinner. You never left her home hungry, or without a smile in your heart.
In addition to her parents and her husband, she was predeceased by her brother, Ralph Plue.
Survivors include her children, Philip (Skip) Spiezio, Harold (Nonie) Spiezio and his life companion Valarie, Linda (Tootie) Spiezio Fitch and her companion Mike, Dominick (Nick) Spiezio and his fiancé Patty, and Vincent (Vinnie) Spiezio and his fiancé Carrie; her sister-in-law, Patricia Ivanoff; 15 grandchildren, 19 great-grandchildren, 6 great-great-grandchildren, several nieces and nephews.
A funeral service was held Tuesday, February 23, 2015 at Flynn Bros. Inc. Funeral Home, 80 Main St., Greenwich with Rev. Martin Fisher, officiating. Interment with her husband followed at the Saratoga National Cemetery in Schuylerville.
Doris will be missed by all that knew her and the many hearts she touched in her 92 wonderful years of life. Her caring words of wisdom and her infectious smile will live on for eternity in our memories.
