Judy Klaw, 69

Judy Eileen Klaw, born in Petaluma, Calif., on June 6, 1946, passed away on Feb. 7, 2016. From Petaluma, Judy relocated to Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, where she lived a fulfilling life as a bank teller and avid churchgoer. In 2014, she moved to Klamath Falls, Ore., to be closer to her family.

Judy is survived by many loving family members: her two daughters, Lisa (Moratto) DeFord and Jill Moratto; her grandson, Joshua DeFord; her sister, Dottie Jones; and her nephews, Matt and Luke Jones and their families. Judy is preceded in death by her parents, Ellis and Frances Harris; and her brother, Bill Harris.

She enjoyed spending time with her family, including her TV families, the Ingalls and the Waltons. She never passed on a sappy Hallmark Christmas movie (or any Hallmark movie, for that matter). She is at peace after a short illness that may have taken her physical body from us here on Earth, but she lives on forever in our hearts and our minds.

In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to North Idaho Hospice.
