July 23, 1941 — March 16, 2024
Hudson – We mourn the passing of Alice Judith Parsons, a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and dedicated nurse who departed this world at the age of 82 after bravely battling Alzheimer’s disease. Judy lived a life marked by compassion and kindness.
As a nurse for over thirty years at Framingham Union and Southborough Medical Group, Judy devoted her career to caring for others, touching countless lives with her nurturing spirit. Her dedication to her patients was unwavering, and her colleagues cherished her wisdom and guidance.
Judy was born in West Roxbury on July 23, 1941 to her late parents, Donald and Margaret Ganong, and was raised in Auburndale. She was a proud member of the class of 1959 at Saint Bernards High School and a star athlete on the school’s basketball team.
Judy married her husband John “Jack” Parsons in 1960 and became a resident of Hudson, MA where she resided for 40 years and raised her family. She was a proud member of Saint Michael’s Parish in Hudson, MA. She loved the beach and had fond memories of visiting Wells Beach and the Cape with her family.
Judy is survived by her husband, Jack Parsons, her son Donald and his wife, Patricia of San Antonio, TX, John and his wife, Karen of Wellesley, MA, Melissa and her husband, Joe of Hudson, MA and Derek and his wife, Wendy of Westborough, MA. She is the proud grandmother of fourteen grandchildren and six great grandchildren. Judy was predeceased by her parents Donald and Margaret Ganong, siblings Donald Ganong, Richard Ganong, and Carol Guthrie, as well as grandson William Parsons. She is also survived by her brother Robert Ganong of Natick, MA, and many nieces, nephews, and cousins who she adored.
While Alzheimer’s may have dimmed her memory in her later years, it could never diminish the love and impact she had on those around her. Judy’s legacy of compassion and service will continue to inspire us all.
Calling hours for Judy will be held on Wednesday, March 20, 2024, from 4pm-7pm, at Tighe Hamilton Regional Funeral Home, 50 Central Street, Hudson, MA. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Thursday, March 21, 2024, at 10am, at Saint Michael Parish, 21 Manning Street, Hudson, MA.
She will be deeply missed, but forever remembered in our hearts.
