Elizabeth "Liz" Ann Dubay

PAXTON/WORCESTER – Elizabeth “Liz” Ann Dubay, 62, passed away at UMass Memorial University Campus on Sunday, June 21, 2020. Born in Bristol, CT., Liz was the daughter of Bruce R. and Shirley (Allaire) Dubay.

Liz spent her early years in Connecticut, Barrington, RI, and California before settling down in Worcester. She graduated from Doherty High School in 1975 and went on to receive a Bachelor of Science Degree from UMass Amherst in Government. Following her passion for food and wine, Liz went on to work for Boston Wine Company. After moving to Sante Fe, New Mexico for many years, she moved to Cape Cod and lived there until 2000, before returning to the Worcester area. Liz truly had a passion for cooking and her job as a wine merchant. The job was a perfect fit for her outgoing personality. She loved sharing her knowledge and passion for food and wines with everyone she met. Her job enabled her to travel all over the world, from Europe to South America and all over the west coast of the United States. Everyone enjoyed to be around Liz for she was always full of life and energy.

Liz is survived by her mother, Shirley (Allaire) Dubay of Worcester; four brothers, Stephen Dubay and his wife, Tracy of Worcester, Thomas Dubay and his wife, Cindy of Worcester, David Dubay and his wife, Allison of Bellingham, Daniel Dubay of Worcester, and nephews, nieces and cousins.
