Judy will be remembered for her kind and gentle heart, and for the deep care she showed throughout her life. She was a loving caretaker to many children, always offering warmth, patience, and understanding. She found peace in her garden and joy in the company of her three beloved cats.

She is survived by her niece and husband, Danielle and Josh Dearnley and their sons Forrest and Charlie; her nephew and his wife, Nicholas and Amanda Salant, and their daughter Genevieve; and by many beloved cousins who held a special place in her heart.
