Judith "Judy" Anne Perlmutter of Mountain Home, Arkansas, passed away February 6, 2026, in Mountain Home, Arkansas at the age of 86. She was born April 8, 1939, in Newark, New Jersey, the daughter of Alan Raphael and Phyllis Robyn. She spent many years as an office manager for an orthopedic surgeon. Judy lived in Mountain Home since moving from Boynton Beach, Florida in 2022. She was known for her love of dogs, walking or swimming daily, and being the one in charge. She was an avid reader, knitted many blankets for different charities, and enjoyed creating diamond dots art. Judy would never turn down a piece of peanut butter pie or a game of Mahjong, where the rules would always change in her favor.

Judy is survived by her daughter Ellen King; son, Mark (Colleen); sister, Souzana; and grandchildren, Joseph and Jaida.

She was preceded in death by her parents; and husbands, Joseph Perlmutter, and Phil Sherman.

Entombment will be in the Kirby's Tucker Memorial Mausoleum, Mountain Home, AR.
