Judith Walsh Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Borek Jennings Funeral Homes - Howell Memorial Chapel on Mar. 3, 2026.
Her Legacy… Judith "Judy" Evelyn (Morrison) Walsh, 63, passed away March 1, 2026. She was born on April 24, 1962, in Burlington, Iowa to George Morrison and Evelyn (Johnston) Morrison. Judith married the love of her life, Joseph Walsh Jr. on September 5, 1992, in Howell, Michigan. She will be remembered as an incredibly loving woman who cared for any person (or animal) she encountered. In her younger years, she spent her time in many artistic groups, including playing the French horn, performing arts, athletics, and 4H. After High School, Judith's passion for learning continued. She received her Project Management Professional certification. She was a Cub Scout Leader for her son and recently became a substitute teacher, leaving an impression on the many children she taught. In her later years, Judith spent her time working around her family reindeer farm: canning, reading, gardening, and hiking. She spent the majority of her time taking care of the many animals on the Shining Star Ranch, and she always had many different projects that she was working on at any time. Judith's strength and care shone through in everything that she did. A faithful woman, she spent her time attending bible study, discussing the passages, and singing in the church choir.

Her Family… Judith will be missed by her husband, Joseph Walsh Jr.; her children, Priscilla Walsh and Joseph Walsh III; siblings, Ann Archer, David Morrison, Jim Morrison; numerous nieces and nephews. She is preceded in death by her parents, George and Evelyn Morrison.

Her Farewell… Judith's family and friends will gather Sunday, March 15, 2026 from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM, as well as 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM at Grace Lutheran Church in Howell, Michigan. Gathering will continue on Monday, March 16, 2026 at 10:00 AM before her Community Farewell beginning at 11:30 AM. Pastor Ken Greble will serve as celebrant.
