Judith Hart Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Powell Funeral Home & Cremation Services - Searcy on Mar. 9, 2026.
Judith "Judy" Ann Hart, 86, of Searcy, passed away on Friday, March 6, 2026, at her home. She was born on March 25, 1939, in Attleboro, Massachusetts, to the late George H. White and Margaret Knowles (Shattuck) White. Judy proudly served her country as a veteran of the United States Air Force, entering in February of 1960. Following her military service, she continued helping others through her work with the VA, serving as a clerk in the psychiatric department. Judy was a faithful member of Saint Paul Global Methodist Church in Searcy, where she found great joy in serving others. She sang in the church choir, was an active member of the United Women's group, and lovingly contributed her time to the Prayer Shawl Ministry. She shared a deep love of travel with her husband, Roy, and together they explored destinations across the world, creating many cherished memories along the way. Above all, Judy cherished spending time with her family, especially during the holidays. At Judy and Roy's home, every seat was filled as family gathered to enjoy good food, laughter, and one another's company.

She is survived by her husband of 63 years, Roy Hart; children, Mary Hart, Donna Hart, Vickie Hart, and Kathleen Hart; son in law, Danny Bailey; grandchildren, Amy Garcia, James Hart, Andrew Hale Sr., Anna Hart, Ashley Dorsey, and Alex Dorsey; great grand children, Dominic Rael, Daniel Rael, Madison Rael, Andrew Hale Jr., Dylan Garcia, Isabella Garcia, Savanna Miller, Hunter Hart, and Prudence Harmony Dorsey; great great grandchild, Lola Alana Rael; as well as extended family members and friends.

Judy is preceded in death by her parents and siblings.

Funeral services will be conducted on Saturday, March 14, 2026, at 11:00am, at Saint Paul Global Methodist Church in Searcy. Visitation will precede the service, beginning at 10:00am. Services will be live streamed by Powell Funeral Home.
