It is with broken hearts that we announce the passing of Judy Bradley of Blairmore, AB on May 10, 2022. She was 71 years of age.
Judy was born on July 30, 1950 in Taber, AB. She grew up appreciating all of life’s blessings and treasuring family and friends – attributes she retained throughout her entire life. On June 17, 1972, Judy married the love of her life, Bruce Bradley. Together, they created a warm and nurturing home where they raised two wonderful children and made countless happy memories.
Judy enjoyed crocheting, doing word-search and jigsaw puzzles, and reading. It was her love of reading that led her to begin volunteering at the local library in 1983, and in 1995 she officially became the librarian. Over the next twenty-two years, her smile and welcoming demeanor always made it a pleasure to visit the Crowsnest Community Library. Judy’s community involvement also included being a member of he Friends of the Library, and a board member of the Literacy Foundation. After retiring in 2017, she greatly enjoyed having even more time to devote to volunteer opportunities. Judy’s kind, cheerful spirit will never be forgotten, and she will live on in beautiful memories.
Left to mourn her passing and celebrate her life is her husband, Bruce; her children, Denise and Scott; her brother, Don Pyper of Bellevue, AB; her sister, Doris Doll of Wainwright, AB; as well as her nieces, nephews, extended family and many friends.
She was predeceased by her parents, Annie Foraie and Walter Pyper.
A celebration of Judy’s life will be held at a later date. Memorial donations will be gratefully accepted by the Crowsnest Community Library (PO Box 1177 Blairmore, AB T0K 0E0). Condolences may be registered at www.fantinsfuneralchapel.ca.
