On August 9, 1958, she married James Conley and was blessed to share 63 wonderful years together. Judie was employed with several medical offices in the Utica area. She was known for her generosity and compassion. Judie volunteered for many organizations supporting women, children, and animals throughout her life. She was an avid traveler who adored her cats, enjoyed reading, and loved tending to her plants and flowers. Above all, she cherished time spent with her grandchildren. Judie is survived by her husband James, her children, James Conley Jr. (Mary), Todd Conley, and Paige Rossman (Kent). Also surviving her are six grandchildren, Zack and Lizzie Conley, Fede and Esme Conley, Alex and Livy Rossman.

The family wishes to extend their heartfelt gratitude to St. Luke’s Hospital staff for their extraordinary care. In keeping with Judie’s wishes, there will be no calling hours. There will be a celebration of her life at a later date. Please consider donations to Anita’s Stevens Swan Humane Society (www.anitas-sshs.org), where Judie was a long-time volunteer.
