Judy was preceded in death by her parents Orval and Orlena Bonham of McPherson, KS. This is where she was born and raised, graduating from McPherson High School.

Judy was surrounded by her loved ones; she was a strong and was fighting the cancer. It was infection that took its toll on her although she fought very hard.
Judy and Loren often traveled to northern Kansas, Oklahoma and California celebrating many family reunions on both sides of the families. These are cherished memories they shared with their daughters.
Judy retired from Bethesda Nursing Home (Goessel Kansas) in March 2022. She was employed in environmental services for 32 years. She gained additional family through her co-workers.
Judy always had a smile or hug for anyone who needed it. She enjoyed spending time with her family and fur babies. She always had a sweet and loving nature that was felt by all. Judy Rudolph is loved by many and will always hold a special place in their hearts. This lady had a heart of gold, as many of her friends would tell you.
In life, we loved you dearly, in death we’ll love you still. In our hearts you hold a peace, no one else can ever fill. We cry as you are taking your journey. We promise we won’t let the tears replace the smiles you gave us, while you were alive. We know you are watching us from above. Always loved, forever will be missed, but never forgotten.
“Look to the Lord and his strength; seek his face always.”
Psalm 105:4
