Judy Ann King

SKOWHEGAN – Judy Ann King, 77, crossed over to the arms of her Lord on June 11, 2023.

She was born on March 1, 1946, in New Hampshire to Elwood and Beatrice Green, moving to Maine as a child. She graduated from Lawrence High School in 1965. It was there in 1960 she met her dearest friend, Suzie (Clement) Longley, beginning a friendship of nearly 63 years.

When her children were young, she ran a daycare in her home. The children were always excited to go to “Judy’s house”. The extra money provided music and dance lessons for her children. She took care of teachers’ kids so she could have summers off with hers.

Judy worked for Weight Watchers for nearly 40 years – first as a member, then as a salesperson and class leader.

Her granddaughter, Addison, came to live with Judy in 2003 at the age of 7. She became her priority, Judy meeting all of Addie’s needs head-on, creating a very strong bond between them.

Judy was very strong-willed, opinionated and out-spoken. She was also one to give behind the scenes, not needing recognition.

Judy belonged to Crossroads Bible Church. Her faith was strong, her belief in her God deep.

Deceased are her parents; daughter, Payton; sister Susan, sister Gigi, brother Bob; former husband, Colman; and sister-in-law, Mary.

Survivors include brother, Dick; granddaughter, Addison; son, Marc and wife Freddie, son, Jason and wife Gabriella and daughter, Katarina, daughter, Doneker and Kip; grandson, Thad and sister-in-law, Ellie; many nieces and nephews.

So many to thank: Patsey, how did we function before you became a family member? Suzie, who has been part of us for a lifetime; Tony, who never needs to be asked; Callie and Gregg, always to be counted on; Kathy (Swiminst) who shows up; Renee, longtime friend; Karen, who cares; Cassie, who gets things moving. God bless you all.

Get together to be announced.
