Gieri Albin, beloved husband, father and entrepreneur, passed away at his home in Cold Spring on August 15, 2025 at the age of 87.

Born in Rueun, Switzerland to the late Gieri and Mengia Albin, Gieri built a life marked by devotion, generosity, and an extraordinary work ethic. Gieri and his devoted wife worked together and created not only a loving home but a culinary institution. Plumbush was more than just a place to eat - it was a destination. Known for its warm atmosphere and exceptional cuisine, the restaurant drew guests from near and far, including celebrities and loyal customers who became like family.

Gieri was the heart of the restaurant, greeting guests with a smile, remembering their favorite dishes and treating everyone with kindness and respect. His passion for hospitality and his commitment to excellence left a lasting impression on all who walked through the doors. Gieri and Pat spent 53 wonderful years together - a lifetime filled with love. Their bond was constant and their life together was rich and full.

In addition to his wife, he is survived by his cherished daughter Monica, and his son-in-law Michael of Jacksonville, FL, his sister Silvia and family of Chur, Switzerland, Pat's loving family, and many friends both here and abroad. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him.

At his request, there will be no formal services. His family invites those who knew him to honor his memory in their own way-by raising a glass, sharing a story or enjoying a good meal surrounded by loved ones, just as he would have wanted.

His legacy lives on in the meals he served, the love he gave and the family he cherished.

Arrangements are under the direction of the McHoul Funeral Home of Fishkill 1089 Main St. Fishkill, NY.
