Judy Stefiszyn

Judy Ann Stefiszyn of Tofield, Alberta, passed away on August 2, 2024 at the Tofield Hospital at the age of 62 years.

She is survived by her husband of 44 years, Ed, her two daughters, Karly and Alyssa Stefiszyn, her father Victor Rudzcki, one brother Barry (Kelly) Rudzcki and two sisters; Sandra (Gerry) Ralph and Janette Rudzcki. She will be remembered fondly by many relatives and friends. She was predeceased by her mother Sylvia Rudzcki.

Judy loved camping, fishing, baking and spending her summer days tending to her huge garden, especially her petunias. A variety of vegetables, plants and flowers filled it.  She treasured the time spent with her husband and daughters at every available moment and captured these memories through scrapbooking. 

Judy was also a smart, compassionate and dedicated nurse for 38 years at the Tofield Health Centre. She had a patience, kindness, and caring to her that made everyone feel comfortable and she provided exceptional care to anyone that was fortunate enough to have her as their nurse.

She was a very strong, hardworking team member on both Acute Care and Emergency, where she worked to her full scope of practice.  Her work family has a variety of memories (the good, bad and the ugly) that also involved many pranks including where she ended up tied to a chair. She laughed about these pastimes often while reminiscing. Her wonderful personality and great sense of humour made the hard shifts easier. EVERYONE loved working with Judy!  She was well respected and loved.  She will be deeply missed by many.

Cremation has taken place.  A Celebration of Judy's life will be announced at a later date.
