Carmichael: Mrs. Judy 1947 - 2003

Judith (Judy) Carmichael (nee Bazant) of Tees, AB, passed away at the Red Deer Regional Hospital on Tuesday, May 20, 2003 at the age of 55 years. Judy was born on September 12, 1947 in Calgary, AB. She attended St. Paul's Elementary School until her family moved from Calgary to the Delia area, where she attended school and later attended grade 11 at St. Mary's Convent in Calgary. After she had finished school, she moved to Hanna, AB where she worked and met her future husband Doug. They were married July 15, 1967. Judy was a very admirable person, touching many people throughout her life. She was very compassionate and loving towards others, always putting them before herself. She had a magnetic personality as people were drawn to her, if for a good cup of coffee and conversation, or some badly needed advice. She had a very strong belief in God and always found time for prayer. Judy was known for her honesty and for her ability to stand her ground. Most important to Judy was her family and she could often be  heard speaking of them to her friends. She was very devoted to children, whether they were hers or others who came into her home. For years, Judy and Doug were Foster Parents, and even afterwards, had an open door and helping hand for those in need. Judy had no difficulty making friends, with her great sense of humour and infectious personality. Judy was known for her artistic talents both outside in her rock garden with her flowers and in her craft room with her paints. She had a knack for making things beautiful and took great pride in doing so. Judy was a very organized lady and would work with something until it was completed to perfection. She always had a project to work on and was a welcome hand on the Ag. Society and Rodeo Club in Tees. Judy was a farm girl who loved animals and the farm life. At times, she would be heard saying, "Doug loves those cows more that he loves me!" in her teasing way. Judy gave to the world what she had: love, laughter, hope and compassion. She was a loving mother, and honest and loyal companion and a wonderful friend. She willingly gave with her whole heart and she will be sadly missed.  Judy leaves to mourn her loss, her loving husband Doug, her son Douglas (Leeann) Carmichael and her daughters, Glenda (Steve) Wright, Tammy Reimer, Jody Carmichael and Roberta Ann (Kelly) Buchwitz and her two grandsons Jason and Justin. Judy also leaves to mourn her loss, her sisters Audrey (Sebastian) Tiberio, Dorothy Laverty, Marjorie Odnakon, Sylvia Gillespie, Sandra (Fred) Land and her brother Peter (Dorothy) Bazant and scores of family and dear friends.
