Obituary of Marion Sileo

Services have been scheduled at St. Agnes Church in Lake Placid, NY for Marion (Ruderman) Sileo, 87, who died Saturday, March 1, 2025 in Lake Placid. Born on July 19, 1937 in Reading, MA, she was the daughter of Marion (Warren) Ruderman and Maurice Ruderman. Marion and her husband, James, owned and operated "Jimmy's Eating & Drinking Place" in Lake Placid from 1975-1988. Marion was the devoted wife of James for 50 years (who predeceased her on May 2, 2007); and a fantastic mother of three children (Tracy, Scott, and Benjamin Sileo); grandmother (Maxwell Pass, Brandi Pass, Benjamin Sileo); and great grandmother (Mason and Ellie Gilman). We have innumerable memories of our family of 5 in Lake Placid; at the Lake Placid Club; being part of the St. Agnes Church & School community; running the family bar & restaurant; as well as family gatherings and trips. After the sale of Jimmy's, Marion and Jimmy were snow birds to Naples, FL and in the summer ran the Craig Wood Golf Club restaurant & bar in Lake Placid for several summers. At the time of her death, Marion was survived by her sons, Scott (Lake Placid) and Benjamin (New York). Marion was predeceased by her daughter, Tracy (May 8, 2007), as well as sisters Beatrice and Nancy, and brothers Maxwell, Joseph, and Allan. Calling hours will be held Wednesday March 5th from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM at the M. B. Clark, Inc., Funeral Home in Lake Placid, NY. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated Thursday March 6th at 11:00am at St. Agnes Church in Lake Placid. Rev. John Yonkovig will officiate.
