She leaves her loving husband of 50 years Mitchell Glassman of Cambridge, two sons: Adam Glassman husband of Yoo Jin Glassman of Cambridge, Matthew Glassman husband of Jeremy Eaton of Ashfield MA, four grandchildren: Nicolas Glassman, Sarah Glassman, Julius Glassman and Davi Glassman.
Judy also leaves two sisters Anne Mack of Charlton, MA and Debbie Feingold of Worcester, MA and their families.
Judy was born in Lynn and was raised in Worcester, a daughter of David Levy and Selma (Turow) Levy. She graduated Doherty Memorial High School and Boston University and completed graduate work at Lesley College.
She was a beloved teacher, mentor and colleague for over 30 years working in the Walpole, Holliston and Lincoln school systems, retiring in 2006 as the Principal of the Lincoln Brooks School. She was well known for the love she had for her work, her professional leadership, her no-nonsense sense of humor and as a loyal and life-long friend to many of her colleagues wherever her career path took her.
She was an avid runner for many years, and ran the Boston Marathon in 1986. In retirement she enjoyed working part time as a new teacher evaluator for Wheelock College and spending many hours on the beach in Truro with her husband, children and grandchildren. Her adventures included traveling much of the world with her husband and winning the chance to dine with Barack and Michelle Obama during their second campaign for the White House in 2012.
She was a member of Temple Beth David in Westwood and later of Temple Beth Zion in Brookline.
The family would like to take this opportunity to thank the personnel at Newbridge on the Charles and Cadbury Commons for their dedicated and compassionate care.
Donations in Judy’s memory can be made to Alzheimer’s Family Support Center, 2095 Main Street Brewster, MA 02631.
