Judith Call Obituary
Boscawen, NH - Judith "Judy" Ann (Drescher) Call, 85, of Boscawen, passed away at Concord Hospital, surrounded by her family on September 7, 2025.
Judy was born on March 8, 1940, in Concord, NH to the late Albert and Ruth Drescher. A 1958 graduate of Concord High School, Judy enjoyed working for Concord Savings Bank and later, for Sprague Electric Co., before her health-related retirement.
Judy met her best friend and devoted husband, Dana, and they married on May 2, 1959, and together raised their two daughters, Deborah and Suzanne, in Concord.
Judy had a smile and gentle spirit to share with everyone. She embraced simplicity in all aspects of her life, creating some of her happiest moments birdwatching, traveling with Dana, trips to Bailey Island in ME with family, the beach, and time spent with family and friends. Judy loved the Lord and was a member of Immanual Community Church and served on the Ladies Guild until she moved to Merrimack County Nursing Home.
She will be missed by many, including daughters Deborah Day (Steve), Suzanne Plante (Robert), grandchildren, including Joshua Plante (Karleigh), great granddaughter Cairo Plante, sister Jayne Schoch and brother Donald Drescher. She is also survived by many cousins, nieces, nephews and friends that were touched by her kind and generous spirit.
She is predeceased by her husband of 62 years, Dana W. Call, her parents, Albert O. and Ruth E. Drescher, sister-in-law Susan Drescher, brother Richard Drescher and brother-in-law Richard Schoch.
Calling Hours will be held on October 17, 2025, from 5-6PM, with Memorial Service starting at 6PM at Bennett Funeral Home, 209 N. Main St., Concord, NH 03301. Burial will be done privately.
Our family would like to express our sincere thanks to all the staff at Merrimack County Nursing Home for the excellent care and compassion Judy received during her years there.
