Judy was born in Edmonton and was raised in the area through High School. She married Jim McLaughlin in 1965 and shortly afterwards the couple moved to the Coquitlam area of Greater Vancouver. She became involved with church affairs and child care, adopted a son Peter, and cared for a foster child.
By the 1980’s her life was shattered with the onset of bipolar disorder. She needed to have care in handling this disease which resulted in a divorce and significant separation from her family. By the 1990’s she was in “Long Term Care” in Victoria where a brother was available to relieve her aging parents in providing family support.
Judy leaves behind her son Peter, foster daughter Joni Mills, two brothers David and Stanley Brygadyr, one sister Lois Hamlett, numerous cousins, nieces Sheila Beckley and Alayne Brygadyr-McCoy, and precious grand nephew Quinn McCoy.
Judy was cremated and her remains will be interred alongside her mother at Mooswa Cemetery, Lindbergh, Alberta.
