Judith K. Walker went home to be with her Lord and Saviour on June 10, 2022. Ms. Judy was born in New Albany, Indiana to Fred and Mildred Blewett on October 9, 1940. She was the second of three daughters. She has an older sister, Linda Rutz, and younger sister, Carol Holton, both of Connecticut. 

Ms. Judy is survived by her loving daughters who were with her at her passing, Debbie Burnett of Kingwood, Texas (husband James Burnett) and Kim Whitchard of Lake Mary, Florida (husband Tony Whitchard). She is also survived by her grandson, Adam Logan of Porter, Texas. She will be missed by her extended family in Porter, Texas and Connecticut and the many friends she has around the country (too many to list). She was loved by everyone who knew her. She was respected by individuals who only met her, she was admired by those who knew of her, and she was deeply loved by those who were close to her.

Judy began working at the age of 14 in various positions of bookkeeping and human resources, and later successfully owned franchises of two temporary staffing agencies over the years. She ran for public office in Parkersburg, West Virginia. She was President of her Women's Club for several years and served on the Chamber of Commerce.

Upon moving to Foley, Alabama to be closer to family, she served as Secretary to Swift Presbyterian Church for over 10 years. She loved serving her Lord and the congregation. She selflessly gave of herself to meet the needs of her pastors and members of the church. She will be missed for her intelligence, compassion, unconditional love, kindness, dedication, and humor. After a long life of work and service, she was looking forward to retirement, at the age of 81, in Kingwood, Texas to be closer to her grandson and other family members.

We love you, Mom. and will forever be grateful for how you touched each of our lives and the blessing you were to us. May you rest in the presence of your Lord and enjoy the rewards of your faith and dedication to HIM.
