The Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ community offers its most sincere condolences to the family, many friends and co-workers of the late Judy (Campagnola) Jones, an employee of the Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ of Lethbridge since 2000, and who most recently worked in the Records Management office in the Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ Library.
Judy passed away Tuesday, Apr. 6, at age 60, and after a battle with cancer.
She is survived by her husband, Gordon, sons Rick and Christopher, daughter Jennifer and their families. She was the proud grandmother of two.
Described as a "ray of sunshine" by a co-worker, Judy was well known to be a very upbeat and positive person. She would come into work every day with a smile on her face and a positive attitude.
Her family – which included Christine Anderson (Mgmt) and Doran Anderson (IT), U of L employees and her sister and brother-in-law, respectively – was very important to her.
Judy was known to make time for her friends and co-workers. She was always willing to help out when needed and to lend an ear when colleagues needed to talk.
Close co-workers described Judy this way: "Over the years, I have worked with many people. Some were wonderful, but none could top Judy. She was one of the most caring, positive people you will ever meet.
"She was a good listener, never complained and was always happy to help. When she felt well enough, she would come to the office for lunch. At first, she would be wearing a toque (hair loss), then she acquired a wig (which she thought was so neat). It was ash blonde. She always kept a good attitude, and we never heard her say once, 'poor me.' She was a wonderful, supportive person and she will be missed."
A memorial celebration of Judy's life will take place on Monday, Apr. 12 at noon at the LDS West Stake Center, 560 Highland Blvd. West Lethbridge.
The family has created a page for people to post messages of condolence and support.
