Care Person Update – Tom Spiezio

Tom Spiezio passed away this morning, January 11, 2026.

Tom & Carolyn Spiezio

Hello Everyone,  

 

Sadly, we share the news that Dogwood member Tom Spiezio passed away peacefully this morning, January 11, following his courageous, 9-month battle with cancer. Tom and Carolyn have been Dogwood members since 2022.  

A wish of Tom's was to go back to Florida, and his doctors said he could go for a short time. On Monday Jan 5th, they flew down from Delaware. His health took a turn for the worse and he was placed in hospice (Hospice House in Lacanto, FL, not far from Crystal River) on Friday Jan 9th. His brothers live down near Fort Myers and I understand that both were there, on Friday at least.

Thank you to Donna Hill for passing on this sad news.

 

Our condolences to Carolyn and the Spiezio family.  Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers for strength and comfort. 

 

 

Sincerely, 

Nanette Meyer, Care Person
