Judith L. "Judy" Griffith

JUDY GRIFFITH went to be with our Lord Jesus January 21, 2026. We thank you Father for sharing her with us and the path she set for each of her children, grandchildren; and for the Godly life she led with love, compassion, generosity, and quite strength.
Judy and Leon met during their freshman year of high school at 14 and 15 years of age. They have journeyed together for 71 years, 65 of those in marriage, from Kentucky and throughout Ohio, settling in Lima, OH where they are members of the Cable Road Christian and Missionary Alliance Church. Judy was a beautiful sister (Don), mother (Bob, Todd, and Nichole), and aunt to many nieces and nephews in the Griffith and Leibee families. She supported and guided us with patience through celebrations, laughs, and sadness.
She joyfully poured love, comfort, and wisdom into her grandchildren, (Cory, Ella, Lucas, Hope, and Josef), and into the lives of so many others she claimed as her own, including the Bolon family. To Judy, family is never limited by blood; it is expanded by love.
Jesus, we know you have welcomed her home, reuniting her with her parents, Donald and Betty Leibee, resting peacefully beside you. Let us remember Judy with gratitude and celebration for her laughter, her gentle spirit, soft southern accent, and the way she reflected your abundance and peace. We remember her on sun-warmed beaches, in the Eastern Kentucky mountains, enjoying music and home-cooked food, and in the simple, warm-hearted acts that blessed our lives.

"Eternal rest grant unto her, O Lord, and let light perpetual shine upon her. May the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace"
Amen
Please join us in a Celebration of Life gathering from 4 to 6 p.m. on Friday, January 30, 2026 at Cable Road Alliance Church, 2264 N Cable Rd, Lima, OH 45807.
