Nicholas J. Izzo Obituary

Nick was raised in Mechanicville and graduated from Mechanicville High School. He was the owner of Quality Custom Sportswear. Nick loved people which attests to his many friends and acquaintances.

He was also a member of St. Nicholas Russian Orthodox Church in Cohoes. Family was everything to Nick. He was always happiest when surrounded by his family and often said that when with them he was indeed, “the richest man in the world.” In addition to his wife Vonnie, he is survived by his loving sons, Paul J. (Megan) Izzo of Latham, Nicholas J. (Britney) Izzo, Jr. of Cohoes and Dr. Gregory P.

Paul) Pascavage; his sisters in law, Margaret (Brian) McKone, Christine Kobylar, Lara (Dr. Michael) Brehm and the late Melanie Burns.
