Mary Judith Fox (88) of Nova died Saturday, July 20, 2024, at Brethren Care Village Health Care Center, Ashland. She was born February 11, 1936, in Ashland to the late Ethel (Dean) and Raymond Starr. Mrs. Fox retired from Citi Financial where she was a Loan Clerk. She served for several years as Troy Township Clerk and was a member of the Nova Community United Methodist Church. Mary enjoyed reading, golf cart rides, and just plain being a social butterfly, but spending time with her family - especially her grandchildren - was what she cherished most.

Mrs. Fox is survived by her daughter, Becky (Wayne) Hiller of Nova; granddaughters, Amy (Julian) Wilson of Mansfield and Ashley (Joseph) Bobak of Nova; great granddaughter, Evelyn M. Bobak of Nova; and sister-in-law, Jan Fox of Middletown. She was preceded in death by her husband of 61 years, Richard O. Fox in 2015; son, Raymond Fox; three sisters, Ruth Austin, Peggy Stevens and Dorthy Brown; brother, Norman Starr; and foster brother, Chet Middling.
