She had a love for birds, bumble bees, hummingbirds and 2 ducks (Jackie and Ming Ming). She enjoyed spending time with family, children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Judy is survived by the seven children they raised together: Bernie (Rita) Coffell, Jr., Tim Coffell, Cindy (Russ) Stowell, Brad (Missy) Coffell, Alan (Gale) McBride, Brett Coffell and Craig (Heather) Coffell. Judy is preceded in death by her parents: Charles and Louise Allen; husband: Bernard Coffell; brothers: Charles Allen and Gary Allen; sister: Carol McCune granddaughters: Taylor McBride and Desiree Coffell and great-great-granddaughter: Amora Vazquez. Cremation will take place at Daisy Hill Crematory in Mt. Pleasant. A small burial of her ashes at Riverside Cemetery will be held at a later date.
