Judith Ann Pellock
Wherever a beautiful soul has been, there's a trail of beautiful memories.
Tribute
On Friday, May 29th, 2026, Judith Pellock passed away at the age of 70, in her home surrounded by her loved ones, after a hard fought battle with cancer.
Judi was born on June 7th, 1955 and raised in Lake Hiawatha, New Jersey, where she remained a resident until the time of her passing. She was survived by her loving songs, Billy, Sean and Connor; sister, Mary Earles Pellish, several nieces and nephews, as well as many exceptional friends, all of whom she cherished.
She was an amazing mother and loyal friend. She was a caregiver at heart and in profession; a true angel on earth. She dedicated her life to caring for those during their most difficult times, radiating compassion and empathy as effortlessly as the beautiful smile you would always find on her face.
Like the sunflowers she adored, she actively and passionately made the choice to stand tall and always find the sunlight, especially during her last months with us.
Judi will be remembered for her kindness, generosity, and the quiet ability to bring people together. Family, friends, neighbors, and those she dedicated her life to care for, all experienced the warmth and sincerity that made the time spent with Judi so meaningful.
Throughout her life, Judi built lasting connections and touched many lives through simple acts of care, encouragement, and friendship. Conversations, shared moments, and everyday gestures created memories that will remain with those who had the privilege of knowing Judi.
Family meant a great deal to Judi, and relationships were always nurtured with patience and devotion. Friends valued loyalty and sincerity, while the patients and families she worked with always appreciated her dedication and thoughtful approach to her work.
The passing of Judi leaves a space that cannot be filled. Yet the memories, lessons, and moments shared will continue to live on in the hearts of those who were fortunate to know Judi.
Judi will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered.
Reminders of Her
Poems and quotes that remind us of our beautiful Judi
If Sunflowers Grow in Heaven
If sunflowers grow in Heaven Lord
Please pick a bunch for me.
Place them in dear Judi's arms
and tell her they're from me.
Tell her that I love and miss her
and when she turns to smile,
Place a kiss upon her cheek,
and hold her for a while.
Because remembering her is easy,
I do it every day.
But there is an ache within my heart
that will never go away."
Gone From Us
Gone from us that smiling face,
The cheerful pleasant ways,
The Heart that won so many friends,
In bygone, happy days.
A life made beautiful by kindly deeds,
A helping hand for others' needs.
To a beautiful life,
Comes a happy end,
She died as she lived,
Everyone's friend.
The Afterglow
"I'd like the memory of me to be a happy one.
I'd like to leave an afterglow of smiles when life is done.
I'd like to leave an echo whispering softly down the ways, of happy times and laughing times and bright and sunny days.
I'd like the tears of those who grieve, to dry before the sun; of happy memories that I leave when this life is done."
Her Journey's Just Begun
"Don't think of her as gone away,
Her journey's just begun
Life holds so many facets,
This earth is only one.
Just think of her as resting
From the sorrows and the tears
In a place of warmth and comfort
Where there are no days or years.
Think how she must be wishing
That we could know today,
How nothing but our sadness,
Can really pass away,
And think of her as living
In the hearts of those she touched,
For nothing loved is ever lost,
And she was loved so much.
If Tears Could Build a Stairway
"If tears could build a stairway,
And memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to heaven
And bring you home again.
No farewell words were spoken,
No time to say goodbye,
You were gone before I knew it,
And god only knows why.
My heart still aches with sadness,
And secret tears still flow,
What it meant to lose you,
No one will ever know.
But now I know you want me
To mourn for you no more;
To remember all the happy times,
Life still has much in store.
Since you'll never be forgotten,
I pledge to you today -
A hallowed place within my heart,
Is where you'll always stay.
To Those Whom I Love and Those Who Love Me
"When I am gone, release me, let me go,
I have so many things to see and do.
You mustn't tie yourself to me with too many tears,
But be thankful we had so many good years.
I gave you my love, and you can only guess
How much you've given me in happiness.
I thank you for the love that you have shown,
But now it is time I traveled alone.
So grieve for me a while, if grieve you must,
Then let your grief be comforted by trust.
It's only for a while that we must part,
So bless the memories within your heart.
I won't be far away, for life goes on,
So if you need me, call, and I will come.
Though you can't see or touch me, I'll be near,
And if you listen with your heart, you'll hear all of my love around you, soft and clear.
And then, when you must comet his way alone,
I'll greet you with a smile and "Welcome Home".

Memory wall
I can’t believe it’s almost a month since you’ve been gone. Never forgotten though. I just got a phone call alittle while ago from the daughter of a client we took care of around 15 years ago. She needs some help for herself now. Of course she asked, “ How is Judi? Is she still working?” She was upset to hear the news, but we shared some great stories from when you cared for her mom. The wedding you all went to, the incredible care you gave her mom and of course you decorating their Christmas tree with Jets candy canes. Your memory lives on in the hearts of all you touched. ❤️
