Publish in a newspaper

Judith "Judy" Gann, née Massey, passed away peacefully on November 26, 2025, at Franciscan Health Crown Point, with her loving family by her side. She was 89 years old, just 12 days shy of celebrating her 90th birthday.

Judy was born on December 8, 1935, in Hammond, Indiana, to Alvis and Myrtle Massey. She lived a life filled with love, faith, and dedication to God and her family. On July 9, 1955, she married Raymond Gann, who preceded her in death in 2006 after 51 years of marriage. Together, they built a strong family and created a legacy that will continue through their children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.

Judy was the proud mother of five children: Gregory (Jody) Mulloy, Randall (Linda) Gann, Richard (Patty) Gann, Robby (Tami) Gann, and Ronald (Eva) Gann. She was a cherished grandmother to 18 grandchildren, a great-grandmother to 51 great-grandchildren, and a great-great-grandmother to 8 great-great-grandchildren.

Throughout her life, Judy maintained an active, independent spirit, always deeply involved in the lives of those she loved. She enjoyed playing cards, often engaging in friendly competitions with family and friends, and loved making trips to the casino. Judy was also an active member of the Red Hat Lady's Society, where she enjoyed socializing with friends and participating in their many activities. She took great pleasure in her involvement at the Roselawn Generation Center, where she connected with others in her community and embraced every opportunity for fun and fellowship. Judy was also a devoted member of Parr Church "New Beginnings" in Parr, Indiana, where her faith provided comfort and strength throughout her life.

Though Judy lived 19 years without Raymond by her side, her love for him never faded. Now, after all these years, she has been reunited with him in heaven.

Judy's family will forever remember her for her kindness, her strength, and the joy she brought into their lives. Her legacy of love, faith, and devotion to family will live on in the hearts of all who knew her.

Visitation will be held on Tuesday, December 2, 2025, at Parr Church "New Beginnings" in Parr, Indiana, from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM, with a funeral service beginning at 12:00 PM. Burial will follow at Roselawn Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to New Beginnings Church.
