Love Lives On Those we love remain with us for love itself lives on, and cherished memories never fade because a loved one’s gone. Those we love can never be more than a thought apart, far as long as there is memory, they’ll live on in the heart.
CLARKSON Judy Darlene

It is with much love and deep reflection we announce the passing of Judy. Her courage to live life on her own terms will be missed by her mother; Dolly, sister; Debbie, brothers; Ray and Ken, sister-in-law; Gayle. Judy’s nieces; Brianna, Karla and Kerri, nephews; James, Ryan, Colin and Blake are blessed having learned from Judy the value of being true to yourself in a world constantly trying to make you something else. Judy’s legend will grow in the hearts of at least 13 grandnieces and grandnephews. Her legend was formed in the friendships and adventures growing up in Pitt Meadows/Haney. Her heart found home and friends in 70 Mile House. Judy; a legend, an icon, a true friend, only encountered on the road less travelled. A memorial service will be held on Saturday, March 28, at 2 p.m. in the 70 Mile House Community Hall. 100 Mile Funeral Service Ltd. entrusted with the arrangements. 250-395-3243 Condolences can be sent to the family care of 100milefuneralservice@gmail.com
