Judith Ann Marshall
Judith Ann Marshall, age 75, of Pevely, Missouri, passed away peacefully on May 8, 2025, at Riverview on the Park nursing home in Ste. Genevieve.
A devoted mother to Eric (Kellye), Natalie, and James, Judith was also a cherished grandmother to Samantha, Abigail, Vincent, Claire, and Ember, and a proud great-grandmother to Emma. She is also survived by her brother Daniel (Maureen), in-laws, nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends, all of whom will deeply miss her.
For many years, Judith enjoyed her work as a legal assistant. She expressed her creativity through sewing, crafts, gardening, and interior decoration, and was known for her distinctive and stylish appearance, always perfectly accessorized. A lifelong dog lover, she cherished the companionship of her many canine friends.
Throughout her life, Judith was known for her exceptional kindness. In her final years, she was consistently described as the “sweetest person” by those she met, often becoming a favorite resident or patient. Indeed, Judith was a kind soul who made friends easily and had no enemies.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Henry and Esther Roach, and her siblings Thomas, Fred, and Bess Mueller.
Judith’s warmth, creativity, love for animals, and gentle spirit will be dearly remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing her.
A memorial service will be held on Thursday, May 15th, 2025, from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM at St. Louis Cremation, 2135 Chouteau Ave., Saint Louis, MO 63103
You were one sweet lady a lot like your dear mother Esther. You will not be forgotten dear girl. Fly high with those wings you’ve earned. Love you Judy!!
Mom, I am who I am today because of you. My love for you is endless, and while this loss is incredibly difficult, I’m comforted knowing you are now free from pain, confusion, and cancer. I always tried to do right by you, just as you always did for me. I hope you felt my love, especially at the end. Seeing you happy brought me so much joy, like during our trips to see Aunt Bess, the Barry Manilow concert after your divorce, and the trip to Cancun. Your kindness is a legacy I carry with me, and I’ll always admire your ability to find light even in darkness. To everyone who loved her, know that we were by her side. Our last words were a sweet and uniquely “us” exchange: she said, “You are my stinkpot,” and when I asked to clarify, “I am your stinkpot?” she replied, “Yes.” After that, I told her I loved her, and she said it back. I know you were at peace, surrounded by love. You’ve taught me so much, especially to be kind. I will miss you deeply, but I take comfort knowing you’re now reunited with family and friends. I love you, Mom.
No words can put into perspective of how much you meant to everyone, or how much you meant to me.
You laugh still echos in my head, all of my childhood memories have you in it. You were my happy, my love, my voice. You helped me when I fell down, and got me a bowl of icecream for standing up..
You were always so caring for everyone.. I remember watching you as a child and thinking that you were the best person I’d ever met, I wasn’t even old enough to comprehend what that even meant.. I can proudly say, I still feel the same.
No one, can ever replace you.
The Fabergé egg of our family… I hope one day I can be looked at the way I looked at you..
I love you forever and always.. you are dearly missed
Judi was an absolute gem of a person. She was a devoted friend and employee. Her drive and advice kept me going and kept the office running. All who worked with her and knew her, loved her and were inspired by her. Judi will be sorely missed but always remembered.
