Judith L. Kingsbury

Judith L. Kingsbury passed away peacefully on March 6, 2017 (2 days before her 84th birthday) at Kimberly Hall in Windsor, where she had lived for over three years, having been a resident of Bloomfield for many years. She was born on March 8, 1933 to the late Lewis A. and Elizabeth V. (Southergill) Kingsbury. Upon graduation from Hartford High School, Judy worked for the Travelers Insurance Co. She became an insurance agent/office manager for the Willoughby & Pinney Insurance Agency and worked in insurance agencies until her retirement in 1996 from the Willis Agency of Hartford, CT. Judy was a very generous, caring person - many of her friends and family were recipients of her baked goods that she made during the year for various occasions, and she was always reaching out to others to give a helping hand, especially to the elderly. She was an avid reader and was very interested in the political scene. For many years, Judy spent a few weeks of summer vacation in Rockport, MA, a place that she called "the home of my soul", baking her "goodies" in advance and bringing a carload to distribute to many, from the strangers on the street to the shopkeepers and friends. Judy is survived by her brother, Charles R. Kingsbury and wife Grace Ann of East Granby, nephews Stephen O'Donnell and wife Vasti of Bloomfield, Michael O'Donnell and wife Susan of Stafford Springs, Allen J. O'Donnell of Pine Bush, New York; nieces Catherine Perez of Alvin, Texas, Barbara Fabiani and husband William of Berlin, Gracelyn Kingsbury and partner Joan Baloga of Windsor, Janice L. Kingsbury and partner Robert Ruick of Windsor; grand-nieces Kristina Pasqueretta of Berlin, Cally Perez of Alvin, Texas, Jamie DeSimone and husband Laurence of Ellington and grand- nephews Rich Perez of Texas, Blake O'Donnell, Drew O'Donnell and Kyle O'Donnell all of New York, Jay Cipolla and wife Heather of VT, as well as other family and friends. Judy was predeceased by her sister Mary Jane (Kingsbury) O'Donnell, a niece Deborah O'Donnell and a nephew David O'Donnell. Her family will receive friends on Monday, March 13 from 10 AM to 11 AM followed by a funeral service at 11 AM at Carmon Funeral Home, 807 Bloomfield Ave Windsor. Burial will be at a later date to be announced. In lieu of flowers please make a memorial donation to Mary's Place, 6 Poquonock Ave, Windsor, CT 06095 or a charity of your choice.
