Born on March 20, 1924, in Whitley County, she was a daughter of the late Chauncey J. and Dessa V. Anderson Hurd. Her early childhood was spent in Columbia City, and later, she attended Larwill and South Whitley schools.
On Feb. 6, 1943, she married Kenneth D. Judd. They made their home in Thorncreek Township, moving to South Whitley in 1956. Kenneth died on Oct. 10, 1985.
Over the years, she worked for the former Blue Bell, Columbia City; Chamberlain Products, South Whitley; and Stumps Printing, South Whitley. Following her retirement, she worked part-time for her daughter and son-in-law’s businesses, Uptown Marathon, and the Green Parrott, both in South Whitley.
Throughout her adult life, she enjoyed gardening and baking. She became skilled at crocheting afghans, which she made for family and friends. When her grandchildren and great-grandchildren were born, they became her pride and joy.
