February 9, 2025
It is with deep sorrow that we announce the death of Judy, age 69, who passed away suddenly on February 9, 2025, with her loving nieces by her side at the LHSC – Victoria Hospital, London.
Dearest sister-in-law to Alice Dobbie and Carol Anne Brown. Brother to William Dobbie. Loving aunt to Tammy, Tracy, Becky, Kaylyn, Laura, Mel, Lisa, Terri-Anne, Ben, Joe and Denise. Fondly remembered by her cherished cousin Sandie Clode. Predeceased by her beloved partner Pat Jansen, parents John and Dorthy Dobbie (Cooper), brothers John and Robert Dobbie and sister-in-law Joan Dobbie.
Judy grew up in Arva, Ontario on the family dairy farm, keeping up to her older brothers, horseback riding and enjoying the outdoors. She spent most of her career working for the London Free Press. Judy was an avid traveler who loved new places, environments and experiencing different cultures. She loved life, family and her dearest friends. Judy’s kindness, warmth and everlasting smile will be truly and dearly missed.
The family would like to extend their appreciation to the staff at LHSC for the care provided to Judy and family during her stay.
