Judy Graham, beloved wife, mother and friend, peacefully left this world on Saturday, Oct. 7, 2023, at the age of 77. Judy’s warm presence and loving spirit touched the lives of many, and she will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
Judy was born on Feb. 7, 1946, in Rock Springs. She spent her early years growing up in Green River with her mother, Flora Tyler; brother, Robert; and adoring grandparents, Lenoir and Charles Edwards. She also spent many summers in Evanston with her aunts and cousins.
On June 15, 1963, Judy married the love of her life, Wesley Graham, while wearing a ballerina-cut chiffon gown with blue and pink trim and accessories. They shared over 55 years together, and their love was a source of inspiration to all who knew them.
Together, Judy and Wes were blessed with four children: Kevin, Amber, Penny and Trudy. They brought immense joy and purpose into their lives. They started their family in Green River and later moved to Mountain View.
Judy enjoyed camping, cake decorating and reading. Judy especially loved Christmas and made the holidays magical for her children and grandchildren.
Judy was survived by her children, Kevin Graham (Shelley), Amber Brunski (Don), Penny Slagowski (Kirk) and Trudy Brown (Ryan); brother, Bob Tyler (Diane); nine grandchildren; and five great-grandchildren.
Judy was preceded in death by her husband, Wesley Graham; grandson, Shaun Brunski; and mother, Flora Tyler.
A celebration of Judy’s life will be held on Wednesday, Oct. 11, at Crandall Funeral Home. Family and friends are invited to join us in remembering and honoring her with a viewing at 10 a.m. and a funeral at 11. There will be a graveside service to follow at Fort Bridger Cemetery and lunch at the LDS church in Mountain View.
