Judy Thayer Obituary
Judy (Musgrove) Thayer went to be with Jesus at 79 years on January 18, 2024 at 4:50 pm in Chandler, AZ. She was born on April 15, 1944 in Silver Spring, Maryland. She was one of three children. Judy married Bill Thayer on January 18, 1964. They had two children, Dawn Lenz and Bill Thayer.
Judy and Bill moved to Arizona and spent most of their lives raising their children in the Phoenix area. Judy is survived by Dawn Lenz (daughter), Bill Thayer (son), Scott Lenz (son-in-law) as well as 7 grandchildren and 5 great-grandchildren.
Judy was known for her strong faith in God and her prayerful spirit. She and Bill loved to dance whenever they had the chance. Her love for her family was undying and she was loved by many.
Heaven gained another angel. Our hearts are broken and yet we take comfort in knowing she and our dad are together again in heaven. The day she passed would have been their 60th wedding anniversary and we know they are celebrating and dancing together for eternity.
