Judith Egan Obituary

EGAN Judith A. Egan born December 19, 1943, daughter of John and Helen Egan of Waterbury and was raised in Bridgeport, passed away suddenly in June 2009. Judy was a registered nurse and a graduate of St. Vincent's Medical Center College of Nursing and Notre Dame High School in Bridgeport. She loved Vermont and made it her home for more than 32 years. Judy's passion and love were animals, continuing her education and a strong interest in local politics. Judy was a friend to many, but especially enjoyed talking and listening to the elderly. She wanted to brighten their day and possibly make life a little easier, and she would provide transportation, meals and shopping trips. She is survived by her loving brothers, John of Littleton, Colo. and Patrick of Huntington; her sisters, Mary Lee of Huntington and Peggy of Fairfield; her best friend and confidant of many years, Joseph Nazzaro of Westport, who will especially miss Judy. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held Saturday, July 11, 2009 at 11 a.m. at the Our Lady of the Valley Catholic in Townsend, VT. Burial will follow in the Williamsville Cemetery. There are no calling hours at this time. Arrangements are under the care of the White Funeral Home, Main Street, Townshend, VT.

Judy was a friend to me, a support to me, when everyone else turned their backs. She stood up for what was right, even when she was scared witless! But, she knew it was the right thing, so she was there. She would call to see if I was doing alright. She'd call me out on things she thought I'd done wrong. But forever honest and caring! Thank you Judy. Your wish came true just weeks after your passing. I'm only sorry that you weren't here with your wonderful smile to share in the celebration of truth.

How saddened I was to learn of Judy’s passing. It has been so many years since we were in touch, but I remember so many great times we shared throughout high school at Notre Dame and beyond. What wonderful memories I have of us going to the beach at Seaside Park, horseback riding in Beardsley Park, taking trips to Cape Cod, a cruise to Nassau and being in my wedding party. What fun we had together! She was always there for me and I hope that I was for her as well.

My heartfelt sympathies to the entire Egan family.

I knew Judy from her nursing days in D.C. I remember that she always was doing something for someone else. I visited her in Vermont whenever I went skiing and she was always a gracious host.

Her sense of humor and go with the flow was demonstrated during a
disastrous boat trip one summer evening..
She and I took a boat trip to Mt Vernon aboard my boss’s boat with a couple of employees. On the way back home the steerage broke and my boss had to steer the rudder with a monkey wrench. Cruising at about 5 mph we didn’t get into the marina until 3:00 AM. Judy laughed and made jokes about
the whole thing. Needless to say she wouldn’t go on anymore boat trips with me.

I’ll miss Judy very much. May God bless her.

I am so sorry to hear of Judy's passing. My sympathy to her family and friends. I met Judy as a young woman through my mother Gertrude NusBickel. They both worked for doctors in the same building in Washington DC. Mom and Judy shared an interest in food and cooking as well holding strong beliefs in right and wrong which lead to many interesting discussions between the two. Judy and I shared a love for the beach and knowing and understanding motivation behind human behavior.

May Judy be at peace.

Dear Family and Friends,
I met Judy when she entered my practice as a patient more than 20 years ago. We became friends and we visited when she drove down from Vermont, sometimes for care and sometimes for just a chat. Judy was a good soul and had great values. She also had a passion for shoppnig and would find the most unusual items. She also loved the beach and her cares and woes would vaporize when she spent time on the coast. Judy was never a quitter when it came to politics or taking a stand on beliefs. May God rest her soul and may her family make peace and enjoy the fond memories of her.

I have had the honor of knowing Judy for many years. She was always ready to listen and be a friend, with an intensity that you couldnt find just anywhere. Your life was her life and she wanted to be just as involved in good times as bad times. I will miss her very much.

This I know:

Judy had a heart of gold.

Judy was a strong advocate for everyone she cared for.

Judy was determined that events, policies, laws, people, places, things, be fair, truthful, and just for all.

Judy stood very strongly by her convictions, she was not to be deterred.

Judy was as full of integrity as they come.

Judy was my friend.

I hope that Judy, having fought the good fight, having always stood up for what she believed in, having tried to live with honor, kindness to others, with the utmost integrity...is now at peace.

I hope she was able to make that last trip to the beach, she was so looking forward to. That she was able to walk the sands with her beloved dog, Oranoke, (her most loyal friend)...that she felt the solace and peace she so richly and rightly deserved...that she found that beautiful, unique, iridescent pearl lined shell she was always seeking (literally and figuratively)...that the waves and the tide gently erased all of her cares and brought her peace.

I will miss her.
