CALAIS – Judith Mariah Moffitt, 84 years young, passed away peacefully Feb. 23, 2012, with her family by her side. She was born and raised in Grand Lake Stream.
She was a member of Second Baptist Church, Calais, where she took great pleasure singing in the choir. She enjoyed word find and jig saw puzzles, cookouts with her family, yard sales and good old gospel and bluegrass music. Her special hobby was collecting angels and she took great joy in sharing those angels. She will be fondly remembered for the hugs she gave out, her warm and genuine smile and truly caring attitude toward all. Her children and grandchildren meant the world to her. She will be warmly remembered and sadly missed, but will live on forever in the hearts of all of us she so lovingly touched.
