Spelios
Nov 10, 1930 — Oct 11, 2019
Ashland
Margaret (Peg) M. Spelios passed away peacefully on October 11, 2019 after a long illness. Born in Boston she was the daughter of the late John and Agnes (Welch) O'Toole and wife of the late James Spelios who died in 1989. She is survived by 3 children: Jim Spelios III of Orlando, FL, Susan Spelios of Cos Cob, CT, and Carol Cooney and her husband John Cooney III of Northbridge, MA, and a grand-daughter Rianne Cooney. She is also survived by her brother Patrick O'Toole of Newton, MA and several nieces and nephews. Peg was predeceased by her brothers Jack and Frank and her sister Mary.
Peg was born and raised in South Boston and raised in Dorchester. As the oldest of 5 children, she helped raise her brothers and sister and made many good friends in the neighborhood. Peg worked for many years in the accounts payable office at Sears, but her main love in life was her family. She focused all of her time and energy into making a warm and friendly home where visitors were always welcome. After successfully raising 3 children of her own, later in life, she found great pleasure in visiting with friends and family and spending as much time as possible with her grand-daughter.
