Obituary for Judith Block
Judith Anne Block (Marinoff) Oct 21, 1948-April 27, 2019
It is with profound sadness we announce the death of Judith Block on April 27, 2019, peacefully in her home in Oshawa Ontario. Judy is survived by her husband and best friend Chester Block, her stepson Duncan Block, her brother Daryl Marinoff , her sister Constance Marinoff, her niece Niki and many other nieces and nephews.
Judy was the daughter of Edward and Denise (Arnal) Marinoff. Judy was predeceased by her siblings; Edward Jr., Michael, Maureen, Shirley and Brian.
Judy grew up in Belle Ewart, Ontario and later moved to Toronto where she attended Parkdale Collegiate. Judy graduated from Lakeshore Teacher’s College. After teaching at Midhurst School in Midhurst Ontario, Judy switched careers and joined American Airlines. During her eight years at American Airlines she made many friends and traveled the world with her dear friend Ruth. Judy also worked briefly for the Ministry of Revenue in Oshawa. Yet another career change came when she joined her husband in his business, Limcan Heating and Air Conditioning.
Judy was best known for her incredible sense of humour and joyous outlook on life as well as her ability to never miss an opportunity to show her mischievous side. Every day she brightened the lives of those around her with her beautiful smile, endless hugs and vibrant personality. She demonstrated a lifelong commitment to help anyone in need, never missing an opportunity to step in and do whatever she could to make someone else’s day better.
Judy was a keen decorator especially in the company of her sister Maureen. She was an amazing and creative entertainer. She and Chester hosted many memorable parties over the years in their home and “Club Dread”. Judy looked forward to her countless trips to Las Vegas with her family and her best friends. She had a special connection with children, and was known affectionately as Auntie Judy. Judy was loved by many people and will be missed by those who have had the good fortune of knowing her.
