Judy Carol Damian

Judy Damian, a cherished daughter, sister, mother, grandmother, and friend, passed away peacefully at home on June 28, 2026, surrounded by her loved ones. Born on January 26, 1956, in Kirksville, Missouri, Judy was a source of inspiration and kindness, whose presence touched the lives of many.

Judy was the beloved daughter of Senneth and Anna Louise Graham, who predeceased her, along with her sisters Alberta Troxell and Debra Graham, her brother Johnny Graham, her beloved daughter Rayma Jordan, and her treasured grandchildren Thomas and Cambrie Jordan. Despite these profound losses, Judy's heart remained open and full of love, a testament to her resilience and strength.

She is survived by her siblings, Tina Graham, Vella Hernandez, and Terry Graham, who will cherish her memory. Judy's legacy lives on in her loving children and their spouses: Michele and Gabriel Hernandez Francisco, Sonya and Salvador Lopez, and Veronica Damian alongside Michael Barrett. Her joy was complete in her 14 grandchildren: Maggy West, Jennifer Wood, Selena Todd, Gabriel Hernandez-Francisco Jr., Marcos Lopez, Isaiah Lopez, Sophia Lopez, Tommari Saine, Justis Jordan, Luciah Pagett, Gerardo Arteaga, and Alexis Garza. Judy's heart was further blessed with seven great-grandchildren: Arabella West, Fabian Francisco Pinkerton, Benjamin Wood, Amelia Lopez, Sebastian Lopez, Aaron Saine, and Lillie Curtis. Her extended family, including David Todd, Dakota West, and Jackson Wood, were also close to her heart.

Judy was an active member of the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses for many years, where her faith was a cornerstone of her life and a guiding light for her family and friends. Her devotion to her beliefs and her community was evident in her every action.

Known for her quick wit, sassy nature, and warm smile, Judy had a rare ability to make everyone feel welcome and loved. Her home was often filled with laughter and the aromas of her cooking, as she delighted in hosting family gatherings. An avid fisherman, Judy loved sharing her many fishing secrets with her grandchildren, creating memories that will be treasured for generations. Her hands were rarely still, always busy with embroidery, crocheting, or cooking, and she found great joy in listening to music and audiobooks.

Judy's life was a tapestry of love, woven with threads of joy, compassion, and humor. Her legacy is one of strength, kindness, and unwavering love. She will be deeply missed but lovingly remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing her.

A private celebration of life will be held at a later date.
