JUDY FEIMER Obituary

FEIMER--Judy Perry, passed away on January 1, 2020. Judy was born in Bath, ME and attended Morse High School, St. Josephs College and the University of Denver Graduate School. Judy first taught in a one-room school house in northern Maine and went on to teach in Connecticut. Subsequently, she joined the Peace Corps and taught in Malaysia. After leaving the Peace Corps, Judy spent a year traveling through the Middle East and Africa. Upon her return to the United States, she joined the faculty at the Saint Ann's School in Brooklyn Heights, NY, an experimental school for gifted students. Judy taught math for grades three - twelve and was the head of the Math Team and Assistant Chairman of the Math Department. She stayed at Saint Ann's for 33 years. Judy was a member of the Art Students League of New York on West 57th Street and was frequently with a group of women artists who painted in Central Park. Judy was a member of several bridge groups in Maine since her retirement. But probably she most enjoyed playing golf at the Bath Golf Club with a wonderful group of fellow women golfers. Judy is survived by her husband John, her brother Thomas Perry and his wife Diane and her aunt Geraldine Perry. Thomas and Diane's two daughters Laura Anne (husband Randolph) Catlin with their children Hanna and Molly as well as Kristin (husband Andrew) Pettingill with their daughter, Pepper; step-children Colleen Paffie and Christine Centrofranchi.

I served with Judy in the Peace Corps teaching at Sekolah Menengah Sultan Abdul Halim in Jitra, Kedah Malaysia. She was a fine math teacher then and obviously continued to be one after returning to America. May she rest in peace.

Judy's stories about her remarkable travels were spellbinding. So was the way she told them -- candid, utterly straightforward, wry even. I've missed sharing lunch hours with her since she left Saint Ann's. She was a treasured colleague.
