Judith (Judy) Ann Malay, “Mimi” to all who knew her, passed away
peacefully Friday, Aug. 22, 2014 at 11 a.m., at the Polidori House in
Lake Havasu City. She was comforted by the love of her family. Those who
knew her appreciated her kind and generous nature.
Judy was born Dec. 31, 1942, in Everett, Mass., to May Rose (Gallant)
and Emmett Hickman Collins. She grew up with two sisters and a brother
in Chelsea, Mass., a small town outside of Boston. Among her hobbies,
were music, dancing, reading and sewing.
She raised her family of three daughters in Peabody, Mass., on the North
Shore of Boston. They are left with many pleasant memories of traveling
and camping as a family. In 1978, the family moved to Lake Havasu City,
where Judy became fond of mountain climbing, horseback riding, hunting
and fishing.
She was preceded in death by her mother, May Rose Glynn; brother,
Lawrence Friot; brothers-in-law, John Washington, Sr. and Vincent
Maglione; step-sisters, Jacqueline and Beatrice and step-brother, Earl.
She is survived by the love of her life, Thomas Malay; daughters, Denise
Barr, Kelly (Larry) Zeitler and Dawn (David) Dodge; sisters, Carol
Maglione and Jacqueline Washington; father, Michael Glynn; step-brother,
Alan Friot; step-sisters, Pat Rose and Louise (John) Sullivan. She also
leaves behind grandchildren, Blake Stokes, Jessica Scavuzzo, Josh Dodge,
Joshua Barr and Kambri (Nick) Bresnahan, as well as many nieces, nephews
and extended family members.
Though our loss is great, and the grieving difficult, we take great
comfort in knowing that she was accepting of her imminent passing and
ready to meet the Lord.
In lieu of flowers, please make donations to the Polidori House in Lake
Havasu City, in honor of Judith Malay.
Services were placed in the care of Lietz-Fraze Funeral Home.
