Judith Ann Stevens, 80, of Greenwich, passed away at her home on Wednesday, October 11, 2023. Born on October 4, 1943, Judy grew up in Burbank before moving to Delphi then resided in Greenwich for the rest of her life. She attended Greenwich Schools and graduated from South Central High School in 1961.
For many years she operated Judy’s Beauty Shop out of her home. Judy also was a school bus driver for South Central Schools and spent many hours working on her family farm. In her younger years, Judy attended the Greenwich United Methodist Church.
Judy’s favorite thing to do was to mow the grass – she spent many hours on her zero turn mower and was very proud of her lawn. She also enjoyed crocheting, sewing, ceramics and doing puzzles. More recently, Judy liked coloring every day. She collected crocks and antiques. Judy also amassed quite the Santa Claus collection and loved decorating for Christmas. Above all, Judy was always smiling and never said an evil word about anyone.
