Doris Colacino Obituary
Friends are invited to a funeral service to be held at 11 a.m. on Friday (September 2) at the Paul L. Murphy & Sons Funeral Home, 127 East Miller Street, Newark. Burial will be in Newark Cemetery
Memorials in her name may be made to the Alex Eligh Community Center, PO Box 43, Newark, NY 14513.
Doris was born on June 18, 1937. As a young girl Doris spent her time at her parent's family establishment, Spangy's Restaurant, in Marion. After graduating from Marion High School, she married the love of her life, Bob, in 1955. They had four children and she devoted her life to her kids and husband. When she wasn't tending the needs of her family, she worked part-time at Wayne Drug, Bob's Body Shop and Jay's Body Shop.
She enjoyed traveling with her husband and visiting Maine with friends. Doris found great pleasure sitting in her driveway, watching little league games and socializing with neighborhood friends. She was a radiant light to all she encountered. Doris will be deeply missed by all her family, but her legacy will continue through her four children Jay (Gina), Jeff (Rhonda), Gary Colacino and Jill (Steve) Finewood; her nine grandchildren and three great-children, whom she adored.

I was so sorry to hear of your mom's passing. I use to baby sit Jay and Jill many years ago. Your mom was a wonderful lady and dear friend. May she rest in peace.

Jay, Jeff, Gary and Jill, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your families. The Spangenberg and Rigglesford families were friends for many years. As a kid, I remember going to Spangy's for burgers and ice cream. Your mom was a lovely lady. May she rest in peace.
