Judith J. Van Dine, 79, of Glenburn, ME, formerly of Wellsville, NY, died Thursday, October 29, 2020, in Reading, PA, surrounded by her family.
Born September 24, 1941 in Kittanning, PA, she was the
daughter of M. Neil and Eleanor Jean Judson.
On August 30, 1964, she married Kenneth G. Van Dine, who survives. Together, they lived in Wellsville from 1968
through 2018.
Judi graduated from the University of Florida in 1963 with a
degree in occupational therapy. Judi is
a member of the First Congregational Church, now Grace United Church, in
Wellsville. She devoted her life to
Christ at an early age and focused her life on loving the Lord, her God, with
all her heart, soul, and mind. Those who
knew her could clearly see this in how she demonstrated an unconditional love
for those around her, her neighbors.
Many were the recipients of the servant’s heart she openly displayed, as
well as the many cookies and Rice Krispies treats she so readily prepared and
shared.
In addition to her husband, surviving are three children, K.
Neil, Douglas, and Kathryn; seven
grandchildren, Suzeline St. Louis, Kenneth J. Van Dine, Lauren Van Dine, Oliver
Van Dine, Caelin Van Dine, Jayden Van Dine, and Katy Van Dine; two great-granddaughters, Sophia St. Louis
and Stella St. Louis; two brothers,
Robert Beatty of Fort Wayne, IN and Richard Beatty of Tacoma, WA; her step-mother, Katherine Judson of
Youngsville, PA; and nieces, nephews,
and cousins.
A memorial service will be held in 2021 after travel
restrictions are lifted. Arrangements
will be announced by Mulholland-Crowell Funeral Home, Wellsville. Burial will be in Woodlawn Cemetery,
Wellsville.
Memorials may be made to Grace United Church, 289 N Main Street, P.O. Box 408, Wellsville, NY 14895 or The River Church, 146 Center Street, Bangor, ME 04401. Online condolences may be expressed at www.wellsvillefuneralhome.com.
