Judy was a proud member of Lady’s Oriental Shrine, the Jesterettes, and the Order of the Eastern Star, New Hope Chapter #590. She was also a 52-year member of West Park United Church of Christ. She was prominent employee of Key Bank, where she started as a bank teller and worked her way up into international banking. In her free time, she enjoyed reading a good book, crocheting blankets, expanding her collection of dog figurines, and spending time with her family. Judy loved to explore the world, whether it being a snowbird in Florida or searching the far corners of the earth, with her best friend Elmer leading the way wherever they went.
