Consuella 'Connie'(Johnson) Corliss, 87, of Glens Falls, NY passed away suddenly on December 11, 2015 at Glens Falls Hospital. She was born on April 16, 1928 in St. Johnsbury, VT to the late Clarence and Irene (Garno) Johnson. Connie graduated from St. Johnsbury Academy. She married her high school sweetheart, Paul Corliss, and together they raised three children. Paul often made her smile by saying he married her for her beautiful blue eyes. They were happily married for over fifty years. Connie's greatest loves were her family, her music, and her homes in Milford, CT and Englewood, FL. A lifelong Methodist church soloist, she delighted congregations in several states with her unusually pure soprano voice. In addition to her parents, Connie was predeceased by her husband, Paul Corliss, and her brother, Robert Johnson. Survivors include her sister, Dawn Chandler of Phoenix, AZ; her daughters, Marcia Johnson, of Queensbury, NY and Sherrie Schallack, of Vernon, CT; a son, Scott Corliss, of Milford, CT, two grandsons, Brett Nemeth and Jeremy Johnson; a granddaughter, Sarah Corliss and two great-grandchildren, Gabriel and Mikaela Nemeth. A private memorial service will be held at the convenience of the family. Because of her love of music and children, memorial donations may be made to the Youth Arts Institute, Charter Oak Cultural Center, 21 Charter Oak Avenue, Hartford, CT 06106. Arrangements are under the care of the Singleton Sullivan Potter Funeral Home, 407 Bay Road, Queensbury, New York 12804. For those who wish to leave online condolences may do so by visiting,
