She was predeceased by her parents, an infant brother, Gerald, two elder brothers, Darrel “Skip” of Fowlerville and Richard “Dick” of Coldwater, a younger sister, Mary Ann Rigney of Hillsdale, an infant daughter, Bambi, and a son, Michael Brett Hartman (2011).

After graduating from Reading High School, Judy completed an x-ray tech degree, and worked at Sparrow Hospital in Lansing. After homemaking, she went back into that field, and worked in Okemos, Howell, and Brighton. She retired from St. Joe’s Urgent Care in Brighton and Business Health where she had worked for many years.
Judy spent time as a homemaker, foster parent and child-care provider. She was active in her church, in the Fowlerville Philomathean Club, 4-H, and Michigan Extension. In later years, she volunteered with Family Impact Center and VIABIL (Visually Impaired and Blind in Livingston)and drove others to medical appointments. She enjoyed sewing, crafts, singing in church choir, playing hand bells, t.v., crosswords, game nights, trips and special times with family and close friends.
Despite final years of painful medical issues, Judy’s generous and caring nature radiated to all those fortunate enough to be in her presence.
