Judith Kay Sprott

On Tuesday, June 10, 2025, Judith K. Sprott, aged 86, passed away at Carleton-Willard Village in Bedford, Massachusetts. Judith will be forever remembered by her son, Tom, and his wife Mei, her cousins Richard, Kathy, and Kevin, and her dear friends.

Born in Berkeley, California, Judith and her two brothers had several homes as their father was posted to military facilities around the United States and in East Dereham, England, where she attended high school.

Judith attended Occidental College in Los Angeles, where she met and married George Sprott, with whom she shared 57 wonderful years. She and George lived for more than forty of those years on White Pond in Concord, Massachusetts, redesigning, reconstructing, and improving their home in a labor of love. Judith was also passionate about White Pond itself, serving on the White Pond Advisory Committee and conducting regular water quality monitoring for decades. She was very knowledgeable about science and volunteered for many years at Boston’s Museum of Science, where she interpreted exhibits and scientific topics for museum visitors.

Judith held office manager positions for a Belmont psychiatric practice and an industrial firm in Maynard. She was active in Concord town government, serving on several committees, including the Public Works Commission and as acting assistant town manager and acting town planner.

Judith loved gardening and artistic landscaping around her home on the Pond, taking special pleasure in traditionally building dry rock walls. She studied Asian brush painting, and she and George made several trips to Japan, a country they both found fascinating. She was a music lover, a pianist, and, with George, frequently enjoyed the Boston Symphony Orchestra.

Family and friends will gather to honor and remember Judith at her memorial service on Saturday, June 21, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. at the Concord Funeral Home, 74 Belknap St., Concord, MA.
