Loving mother of Rick and Judith Parker, Cindy Taylor and Chris Scoyne, Randy and Carolyn Parker, and Rod and Tammy Parker. Much loved grandma of Tim, Erin (Brian); Ryan (Jeanette), Megan (Brad), Kari (Marty), Kim, Krista; Bryan (Michelle), Brett, Brittany (Paul); Darren (Kyley), Kayla, and Devin (Emily) and proud great-grandma of Katelyn, Will, Nic, Ben, Grace, Ruby, Rosie, Londyn, Brooklyn; Jesse, Jasper, Jorja, Isaiah, Olivia, Hayden, Mace, Alex, Sophia, Emmett, Bella, Violet, Bellatrix, and Azaleigha.

Our deepest condolences on the loss of Aunt Judy. Lots of fond memories around family visits with Aunt Judy and Uncle George. I loved to hear about her latest knitting or crochet project as I too enjoy that hobby. She blessed us with a beautiful afghan when we got married, and did this for countless others in her family. We will miss her dearly and please know you’re in our thoughts and prayers!

To the Parker family : I am so sorry for your loss of mom she was the greats person in my build to visit and talk too. Hang on to the many memories you have as a family.
Our sincere condolences to Judy’s family.
She was an amazing lady.
Our kindest regards.
We have been fortunate to get to know both George and Judy at extended family celebrations with the Parker family over the years. They took a keen interest in getting to know those who were connected to their children and grandchildren and great grandchildren. We enjoyed being in their company and sharing in conversation. Our sympathies to the entire Parker family.
Our most heartfelt sympathy to all of you at this sad time. I think back to the weddings we were invited to, the times Judy and I had coffee together at the camp in Bayfield. The meals Judy cooked for us. The Auctions! I remember back to when Rod was born , close in age to Tom . Aunt Pearl and Bea Shaddick comparing notes as to which of the boys did what soonest. I remember enjoying Brian , Randy’s oldest when Judy would keep him at the park while Randy and Caroline had some me time. I remember Cindy and the girls as little ones. Judy and I would correspond through the winter when we were all in Florida. Not only was Judy a cousin to Gerald but became a good friend to me. I feel sad also but did pray after my last visit on the phone that Judy would not suffer much longer. Judy is with George now. They earned their wings.
So sorry to hear that Judy has passed! My sincere condolences to the entire family.
Judy will be reunited with Geoge and the card games will resume with them and my parents.
They were the best friends in every way !
Rest in peace Judy!

My sincere condolences to Rick, Cindy, Randy, Roddy , and their families. We all had such fun growing up, together. My fondest memory of Judy, was back in the early 70’s ice storm. There was no hydro. You guys had a generator and our family stayed with you guys. Judy made us all chicken soup and hot dogs. It was great. I’ve never forgotten what fun that was. Judy and George are now together again. God bless them.
Sending our sympathy to all of your family.

Our condolences to all of Judy’s family. We enjoyed having your Mom and Dad as neighbours and there were many lovely visits. Your Mom was the first one at the apartments to create flower beds and we all appreciated seeing her flowers. She also promoted lots of social time outside with her benches and chairs. She was a very kind, friendly neighbour and Bob and I miss her and your Dad who was also ready to help. You are in our thoughts and prayers. The world is certainly a better place because she was here.

I was her mail lady for her (and George’s) time in Exeter and she would often bring me fresh out of the oven chocolate chip cookies and always knitted me dish cloths for Christmas. We would chat from time to time and I always thought she was a truly wonderful lady.
My condolences to all of the family in your time of sorrow.
Got to know Judy briefly while in hospital in October, great lady, and her family loved her very much. So sorry for your loss.
Just saw obituary now or would have been sent sooner
