It is with heavy hearts that we announce the peaceful passing of our beloved wife, mother, mother-in-law, grandmother, sister, sister-in-law and beautiful friend.

Predeceased by her parents Ralph and Susanne Savastano; in-laws Leonard and Anne O'Driscoll; brothers-in-law Gordon and Aloysius O'Driscoll; sister-in-law Carmel Powell and special nephew Dennis Gaffney. Leaving to mourn with loving and precious memories, her devoted husband of 46 years Gerald O'Driscoll; her sons Tristan (Kim) Grech, Gerry (Michelle) O'Driscoll and Brian (Sonia) O'Driscoll; her pride and joy whom she loved with all her heart, her six grandchildren Tristan and Ryan Grech, Brianna and Dylan O'Driscoll and Rebecca and Lucas O'Driscoll; her sisters Theresa (Dennis) Gaffney (NY), MaryAnn (Juanda Caines) Savastano (FL), her brother Ralph (Tina) Savastano (NJ); her brothers-in-law Frank (Irene) O'Driscoll (NJ), Herb Powell, Leonard O'Driscoll; sisters-in-law Irene (Eric) Kavanagh and Bernice O'Driscoll. Judy also leaves behind a very large circle of friends and family members including some special nieces/nephews, grand-nieces/nephews, cousins and very close friends; Kay Smith and Al and Marion Olieszewski (NY). Special thanks to the doctors and nurses (Trisha and Linnea) in the ICU at St. Clare's Mercy Hospital for their outstanding care and support during her time there. Judy was loved by all that knew her; she was a very kind and gentle soul. Judy had a tremendous outlook on life and believed that "laughter is the best medicine". She battled her lifetime fighting asthma and arthritis but no matter the pain she endured everyday she always kept that beautiful smile on her face. Cremation has taken place. There will be a special Mass to celebrate Judy's life at Sts. Peter and Paul R.C. Church in Bay Bulls on Saturday, June 24, 2017 at 3 p.m.

"She's in the sun, the wind, the rain. She's in the air you breathe with every breath you take. She sings a song of hope and cheer, there's no more pain, no more fear. You'll see her in the clouds above, hear her whisper words of love. You'll be together before long, until then listen
for her song."
