Julia Marie Baldwin blessed her parents, Ira “Junior” and Aaron Lee Baldwin, with her entrance into the world, on April 11, 1953, in Shiro, Texas. She was known to family and friends “Bones and Judy” At the age of 11 years old her parents gained their wings. Soon after her siblings and herself moved with their grandmother, “Mama Judy-Julia Wiley”. Even with the hardship of losing their parents at a young age they all still beat the odds.
Judy was a devoted sister, mother, grandmother, and friend. She showed love and care to everyone who crossed her path. That love revolved around her occupations until she could no longer work.
Judy received her education in Huntsville and graduated from Huntsville High School.
Judy’s main enjoyment was seeing a smile on her kids and grandchildren’s faces, growing flowers and plants, and of all things, beauty and fashion. She was a Diva at heart and had a glow about herself that could not be denied or duplicated.
Judy’s church affiliation included Little Bethel Holiness Church, under the leadership of the late Pastor L.V. “Pop” Bryant, and in later years her membership was moved to Midway Baptist Church of Shiro under the leadership of Pastor Leonard Minor.
Judy was loved by many people, and she will be truly missed! God truly blessed us all to have witnessed such a beautiful soul!
