Judy Binzen Obituary

In Loving Memory of Judy Binzen 1948 – 2025

With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our beloved aunt, Judy C Binzen, who left us peacefully on May 24th, 2025. She was just shy of 77 years old.

Judy was a vibrant spirit whose laughter could brighten any room. Known for her quick wit and loving heart, she had a knack for making everyday life a little more interesting—and a lot more memorable.

A lifelong animal lover, she shared a deep bond with her many feline companions over the years. Her cats were more than pets; they were family, confidants, and constant sources of joy.

An avid fan of game shows, especially Jeopardy! and The Chase, she rarely missed an episode and could often be found shouting answers at the television. Her enthusiasm for trivia and her love for a little friendly competition made her a favorite teammate at game nights.

When she wasn’t at home curled up with a cat and the remote, Judy enjoyed the excitement and sparkle of casinos. Whether it was a weekend trip to the slots or just dreaming of hitting the jackpot, she relished the thrill and camaraderie that came with it.

She is survived by her brother John, sister-in-law, Shirley, nephew, John, and niece Katherine, and three great nephews, all of whom will miss her warmth, humor, and unconditional love.

In honor of Judy’s memory, the family suggests donating to a local animal shelter or feline rescue organization. May her love for animals—and her zest for life—live on through every life she touched.

A private/family celebration of life was held on June 5th, 2025. Arrangements were entrusted to Turner-Eighner Funeral Home. For more information or to sign the online guestbook go to www.EighnerFuneralHomes.com
