Judy Ramsburg
April 24, 1971 — February 11, 2014
Judy Louise Ramsburg, 42, of Thurmont died peacefully in her sleep on Tuesday, February 11, 2014 from complications of diabetes.
Born on April 24, 1971 in Frederick, she was the loving daughter of Mehrle and Thelma Ramsburg of Thurmont.
Judy had been formerly employed at the Frederick Memorial Hospital cafeteria, Lohr's Family Restaurant and Jackson Hewitt Tax Service. She had been attending Frederick Community College and was studying communications and American Sign Language. She graduated from Governor Thomas Johnson High School in 1989.
Judy loved to laugh and enjoyed spending time with her friends. Her hobbies included making jewelry, playing pool, country line dancing, and spending time with friends at Denny's Restaurant.
Every year, she faithfully volunteered at the 50/50 booth at the Guardian Hose Carnival in Thurmont. She also enjoyed working to promote and raise money for Christmas Cash for Kids.
She was a member of Glade United Church of Christ in Walkersville. Just a few months ago, in a sweet conversation with her sister Ginny, Judy had come to understand and accept Jesus Christ as her Lord Savior.
Judy adored her nieces and nephew, and especially held a special fondness for her great-niece, Bailey.
In addition to her parents, Judy is survived by two sisters, Virginia (Ginny) R. Crist and husband, Roger, and Mary Jane R. Roop and husband, Samuel, all of Thurmont; three nieces, Julie Roop Tingue and husband, Eric, of Delevan, NY; Whitney Crist Blickenstaff and husband, Ryan, of Myersville; and Lauren Roop and fiancé, Jordan Berkhouse of Philadelphia, PA; a nephew, M. Jacob Roop and fiancée, Sarah Hammitt, of Wheaton, IL; and her very special great-niece, Bailey Elizabeth Tingue of Delevan, NY.
Judy was predeceased by her sister, Barbara J. Ramsburg in 1991, and a nephew, David A. Crist in 1987.
The family will receive friends from 2 to 4 and 6 to 8 p.m. on Sunday, February 16, 2014 at Stauffer Funeral Homes, P.A., 1621 Opossumtown Pike, Frederick.
Funeral services will begin at 10 a.m. on Monday, February 17, 2014 at Glade United Church of Christ, 21 Fulton Ave., Walkersville. Officiating will be the Rev. Philip N. Curran and the Rev. Tim May.
Interment will follow in Mt. Olivet Cemetery. Serving as pall bearers will be Jacob Roop, Ryan Blickenstaff, Jordan Berkhouse, Eric Tingue, James Dertzbaugh and Eric Schmidt.
