She enjoyed seven years as a schoolteacher at St. Charles Borromeo School in Kettering, Ohio, before dedicating her time to raising their daughters Jennifer (Kyle) Snyder, Lisa (Jeff) Hallo, and Kara (Dan) Ball.
Beloved "Na" to her grandchildren Morgan, Jake, Cooper, Ashlyn, Bridger, Katelyn and Lizzy, she is survived by her husband of 47 years, daughters, sons-in-law, brother Jack (Connie) Harrington, sisters-in-law, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and many other loving family members. She joins those in Heaven who have preceded her in death, including her parents John and Bernice (Morris), and sisters Margaret and Mary.
Judy was devoted to her God and family. Every year, the family enjoyed taking summer vacations to Hilton Head Island and Destin, and they often got together for cookouts. She also enjoyed going out to lunch with her friends, cheering on the UD Flyers, and loved doing crafts, reading, gardening, playing games and watching movies with her grandkids. She will be missed dearly by all who loved her.
