It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Judith "Judy" Emily Johnson, at the age of 82 on January 27th, 2025 after a long battle with dementia.
Judy was born on May 15th, 1942 to parents Anastacio and Gladys Viray in St. Paul, Minnesota. She is preceded in death by: brothers Carlos and Andy Viray, and sister, Gladys "Annie" Beck. She is survived by her 10 children: Richard, Kimberly, Charlene, Rebecca, Charlotte (Rick) Rhode, Elizabeth, Maria, Tammy (Aaron) Erickson, Bonnie, and Cassandra (Chris) Matrious. Along with 34 grandchildren and 10 plus great-grandchildren.
Judy was a devoted mother and homemaker. She was kind, nurturing, and loving. Judy's energy would light up the room and the simple things in life brought her great joy. She loved music, dancing, shopping, and spending time with her family.
She had a soft spot for babies, cute dogs, and loved taking long walks on the beach. She enjoyed relaxing in the sun and watching children at play. She was always welcoming if you came over, offering a meal, she could come up with so much on a whim. You could always count on a good laugh with her, she had a great sense of humor. She had a very giving heart and always wanted to help those in need, especially her family. She will be missed greatly by those hearts and lives she's touched.
Please join us in celebrating her life on February 6th, 2025, at 2:00pm at Bradshaw Funeral Home, 4600 Greenhaven Drive, White Bear Lake, MN 55127.
