Paul Andrew Silva was called home on April 16, 2026 and is now resting in His everlasting arms. He was blessed with many happy years to watch his family grow after a life-altering liver transplant in 1996 and a live donor kidney transplant on February 14, 2019, both performed at Mass General Hospital in Boston. Born June 25, 1954 in Lansingburgh, NY to Paul Frederick and Alice Bethel (Smith) Silva, Paul was the youngest of five children. In 1961, the family relocated to Swarthmore, PA, and shortly following the 1968 death of his father, to South Glens Falls, NY where Paul graduated high school in 1972. Predeceased by his parents, eldest brother, David, and brother-in-law, Thomas Sharak, Paul cherished his close bonds with his siblings Philip Silva, Sharlene Silva, and Marlene Silva Sharak, who survive him.

Paul met the love of his life, Rhonda Marie (Dunn Hamilton) Kraft, at a softball game and they soon married at Harrisena Church in Queensbury, NY on December 12, 1987. Together they built a home in Lake George where they raised their blended family which included Eric Orion Silva (Sheryl) and Amber Lee Silva (Hicham Damahi) from a previous marriage to Pamela Sue Welch (d. 2003), and Jennifer Marie Kraft and Raymond Henry Kraft III (Jennifer Lynn) from Rhonda's previous marriage. He is survived by his wife and children; eight grandchildren: Brianna, Erika, Samantha, and Emma (by Jennifer Marie), Sabina (by Eric), and Tariq James, Elwood Zaïm, and Rafiq Sage (by Amber); four great-grandsons: Colton, Bentley, Declan, and Ashton (by Erika); nieces: Dawn, Jill, Jenny, and Evelyn; and numerous cousins he dearly loved reconnecting with at Silva Family Reunions.

Paul earned a B.A. in Philosophy from SUNY Potsdam in 1976, which naturally transitioned into a long career in the finance and insurance industry. While he began his post-graduate life as a shoe salesmen in Philadelphia, PA, he soon found employment there at the National Chamber of Commerce. In 1980, Paul returned to the Glens Falls area where he was employed by Metropolitan Insurance then, following his liver transplant, at Legacy Partners. Never wanting to remain idle, he jokingly referred to himself as a semi-retired retirement income strategist (CLU, ChFC), and in his later years Paul led numerous financial training courses and webinars, hosted a radio talk show "Insights on Finance," and published "How to Retire without a Pension" (2014).

As Paul recovered from his life-saving operation, his life was again saved by faith. For 28 years he was the Lord's devoted and faithful servant, and an active participant in the life of his church community where he forged the deepest of friendships. One such friendship saved his life yet again when a fellow congregant, Terry Smith, became his live kidney donor. He began each day grateful with his coffee and the Bible. His time in Boston also converted him into an avid Red Sox and Patriots fan. Paul was furthermore a huge blues enthusiast, keeping harmonicas in his office and car so that he could join in. He will be tremendously missed by the family he was born into, the family he created, and the family he found, including his beloved dog, Frank (11th Hour Canine Rescue NY).

Services will be held Sunday, April 26, 2026 at Gateway Church, 97 Hamilton Ave in Corinth, NY at 12pm. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you consider a donation to Donate Life America, or by offering your support directly to the organization's mission by becoming an organ donor yourself.

HADLEY- It is with heavy hearts that we share that our beloved mother, Dorothy O’Reilly, of South Shore Road, and known to many as “Bobo”, passed away peacefully on Tuesday, March 31, 2026 at the age of 96.
Dorothy was born on August 27, 1929 in Brooklyn, NY, the only daughter of the late Philomena (nee Ciccone) and Frank Gissi. She spent her early childhood in Brooklyn until her family relocated to Brentwood, NY, where Dorothy attended and graduated from the Academy of St. Joseph.
After graduating, Dorothy began working for Metropolitan Insurance in New York City. At the end of the work day, she would often walk her best friend, Angie, to the New Jersey transit line of Penn Station.
It was here that she met her husband James “Jim” O’Reilly, who worked for the New Jersey railroad at the time. After their first meeting, Jim, who lived in New Jersey, would sometimes ride the LIRR with Dorothy just to spend time with her, before returning to Penn Station.
Dorothy and Jim married on November 21, 1953 and welcomed their first child in October of 1954. Soon after, the couple bought their family home in Bay Shore, NY where they would go on to have and raise five more children.
In 1968, they purchased their beloved summer camp on the Great Sacandaga Lake and joined the Overlook Beach Club community. Dorothy spent a total of 57 summers at the lake, and even served a term as president of the Overlook Beach Club.
Dorothy and Jim would eventually retire to Overlook - though often escaping the harsh winters by traveling the country to visit their many children and great-grandchildren. They remained married for 55 years, until Jim’s passing in 2009. In 2015, Dorothy moved to Plattsburgh, NY to live with her daughter, Sharon, where she remained until her passing.
Dorothy’s faith was very important to her. A devout Catholic, she was a member of the Third Order of Saint Francis. She was a member of the Holy Rosary for many years and also served the church as an Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion. She also attended Holy Infancy of Lake Luzerne and then Holy Mother and Child Parish of Corinth for many years.
Besides her beloved husband, Jim, and her parents, she was also predeceased by her son, Jimmy, and her three brothers, Joseph, Alfred, and Richard.
She will be deeply missed by her children and their spouses, Kathleen (John), Robin (Michael), Michael (Laurie), Tricia (Stephen), and Sharon (Craig); her 13 grandchildren, Jonathan, Katie (Mario), Mike, Maggie, Lucas, Rachel, Tricia, Adam, Emily, Olivia, Cheryl, Stephen, and Derek; and her great-grandson, Enrique, and his sister, Melanie, and brother, Mario Jr.; and she was also the cherished aunt to three nephews, Alfred (Christine), Kenny, and Joseph, as well as many great-nieces and nephews.
Friends and family may call from 3-7 p.m., Monday, April 6th and from 10-11 a.m., Tuesday, April 7th at the Densmore Funeral Home, Inc., 7 Sherman Ave., Corinth.
A Funeral Mass will be held at Noon on Tuesday, April 7th, 2026 at Holy Mother and Child Parish, 405 Palmer Avenue, Corinth, with Father Kenneth Swain officiating.
