Doris Lane Wood

December 15, 1926 - March 2, 2021

Niskayuna- Doris Lane Wood, 94 of Niskayuna passed away peacefully on Tuesday, March 2, 2021 at her residence with her loving son by her side. Born in Toccoa, GA on December 15, 1926, she was the daughter of the late Charles W. and Ollie (Mount) Lane. Doris received her Bachelor’s Degree in Business and attended two years at Albany Law School. She was an avid golfer and won the Georgia State Open at one time. Doris had the most amazing life: from growing up in a 47-room mansion to traveling from New York City to Paris and around the world for her modeling career. She also starred in some TV show’s including, “The Fashion Story” which starred Carl Reiner. During a visit to a friend, Doris walked in to watch a friend of hers in Finnegan’s Rainbow on Broadway where they insisted that she hurry up and get dressed and ended up in the play for six months. Naturally, she was the center of attention wherever she went. Anyone who spoke to her would automatically start sharing his or her innermost secrets and thoughts, even at a checkout line. She also would by pure coincidence meet celebrities wherever she went. She dated three different Kings, one of which kept flowers in her room in Paris for a whole year. Along with her acting and modeling career, Doris was also a real estate agent for over 35 years with different companies and had her own interior design company, Lane Interior Design, where she decorated the then, Bellevue Woman’s Hospital, in Niskayuna. In addition to her parents, Doris is predeceased by her husband of 33 years, Harry T. Wood. She is survived by her dedicated and loving son, Harry W. “Wesley” Wood. There will be no services. Arrangements are entrusted to Griswold Funeral Home, 1867 State Street, Schenectady.
