Obituary of Pamela J. Przybylo

Pamela J. (Ryan) Przybylo, born June 2, 1959, of Tribes Hill, New York and Dennisport, Massachusetts, passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, July 1, 2017 in the comfort of her home with her loving husband, Joseph, by her side. She was predeceased by her mother, Beatrice C. Mossey, of Fort Plain, New York, and was the second oldest of four siblings. Pam enjoyed a long career in the fields of computer programming and information technology and had just recently retired from her role as Information Technology Specialist after over 28 years of service with the New York State Department of Transportation. Pam first met her husband in 1982 in Fonda, New York, when they were just beginning their careers working in different departments for the County of Montgomery. After five years of courtship, they were married in Amsterdam, New York on October 4, 1987. While raising their daughter, Carolyn, Pam and Joe traveled extensively and were able to begin living out their dream of owning a second home on the beach in Cape Cod. Pam lived a very happy life and enjoyed reading, shelling at beaches, and spending time with her sweet golden retriever, Zeva. She also treasured her large, loving family and spending time with them, whether hosting family gatherings or just relaxing by the pool or at the beach. Above all, Pam adored her adventures and excursions with her husband where they photographed some of the most beautiful landscapes nature offers around the country. Pam is survived by her loving husband, Joseph A. Przybylo, of Tribes Hill, New York and Dennisport, Massachusetts; her adoring daughter and best friend Carolyn (Przybylo) Grimaldi (Russ Grimaldi) of Manhattan, New York; her beloved golden retriever, Zeva; her siblings, Terry (Ryan) Allard (Peter Allard) of Swanton, Vermont; Michael Lawson (Tina Lawson) of Fort Plain, New York; Valerie Lawson (Adam Parsons) of Fort Plain, New York; her extended family John and Gail Przybylo of Amsterdam, New York; Wanda Sinda of Amsterdam, New York; Theresa DeSorbo of Amsterdam, New York; Patricia Przybylo of Leesburg, Florida; and her many nieces and nephews, all of whom she cherished profoundly. Pam took great pleasure in ensuring those around her were happy and felt loved, and as such, she will be dearly missed. In accordance with Pam's wishes, the arrangements will be held privately. Friends are welcome to make a donation in Pam's name to the Humane Society of New York.
