East Greenbush-Darcy Colby, 47, passed away suddenly at home on Tuesday, March 25, 2025. Darcy was a graduate of Hudson Valley Community College as a Registered Nurse. She worked at Planned Parenthood and St. Peter’s Health Partners as an OBGYN Nurse.
Darcy was the daughter of the late Francis Keneston. In addition to her husband, Michael, Darcy is survived by her cherished son Noah, mother Patricia, sister Erin (Sydney Hill Jr.), niece Paige and nephew, Francis. She leaves behind her dog, Digby.
Darcy enjoyed spending her time baking for her family and making special treats for all of their beloved dogs. She loved to travel, ski and go camping with her husband, Michael, while always bringing along their adventure co-pilot Digby.
Darcy dedicated her life to enriching the lives of others. She was kind, smart, loyal, loving and always wore a smile. Whenever she left the house, you could spot her from a mile away with a quintessentially “Darcy” hat, no matter the weather. You could always count on a gift which radiated her energy, a card on holidays, and the traditional Colby Newsletter at the end of every year to make sure you were always up to date on the happenings of her family. She was a dedicated nurse, full of knowledge, and always ready to help her patients, offering the same kindness and the same smile she showed to everyone else.
Services are yet to be determined but will be held at W.J. Lyons, Jr. Funeral Home in Rensselaer. All are welcome to attend to celebrate the life of Darcy.
