She was a devoted grandmother to Justin and Calyssa, who brought immense happiness into her life. She is also survived by her brother, Dennis Van Winkle, and his wife, Vicky Van Winkle.

Judith will be remembered for her kindness, strength, and unwavering love for those around her. She touched many lives and will be deeply missed by her family and friends.
