Judith E. Caldwell Hardy was born June 30, 1941. She died Dec. 24, 2022
from covid pneumonia as well as lacking any natural immunity due to a
kidney transplant 15 years ago.
She was born in San Bernardino, California to Gertrude and George Howard
Caldwell, and spent her early years on the beaches of Santa Catalina
Island which she looked upon as her home away from home always. Later,
she moved to Salt Lake City where she enrolled in the Rowland Hall
School for girls.
While there, she met her future husband Ted, and they were married June
7, 1960 in St. Mark's Cathedral. Sometime later, first Judy, and then
Ted converted to the Catholic faith, after an intense time spent on a
Marriage Encounter weekend.
On Feb. 5, 2000, they moved to Lake Havasu City, and became immersed in
the happenings here in town; Our Lady of the Lake Soup Kitchen, the
Catholic Daughters of the Americas, the Balloon Festival, the Clydesdale
Horses, and the Havasu Classics car club.
Judy is survived by her husband and children: David, Dana and Kelly.
A funeral mass will be said Wednesday, Feb. 15, at noon at the Church,
with a Rosary before and a reception afterward.
