Judah McCarthy Obituary

Judah Shea McCarthy

March 7, 2015 - May 28, 2015

Judah Shea McCarthy peacefully died in the arms of his parents on May 28, 2015 at Randall Children's Hospital. During his life he enjoyed listening to music and being held close by his parents. He touched many lives and was deeply loved by family and friends. He was born with congenital heart defects and bravely overcame many obstacles before his heart suddenly stopped. His heart will live on in another baby in need of a new heart valve. His parents are grateful for the opportunity to witness his courage, beauty, and love.

Donations can be made to Randall Children's Hospital; the staff provided incredible care for Judah and his family.

Judah is survived by his parents Sean & Erika McCarthy and big sister Everette Grace. His grandparents are Steven & Constance McCarthy and David & Cheryl Rempel.

Visitation will be at Keizer Funeral Chapel on Thursday, June 4, 2015 3-6 pm. A memorial service will be held at Outward Church in Salem on Saturday, June 6, 2015 at 11 am.
