Judy Catherine Siemon was born in Butler, Missouri to Arley
Eugene and Anita Velma Elton on October 18, 1944. She
passed from this world into GOD's hands in the early morning
of July 20, 2024.

Judy married Wilbur Dee Gaylord at Finey Baptist Church
November 14, 1965. She gave birth to and raised three sons;
Wilbur Dee Gaylord Jr., Robert Lee Gaylord, and Kelvin Jay
Gaylord. She later married Bill Siemon on May 17, 1986 and
for 21 years, they enjoyed camping, dancing, and just being
together.

Judy was preceded in death by her parents, her husband, her
son Robert, sister Joan, brother Ronnie, and brother John. She
is survived by two sons, one sister and 17 grandchildren and
great grandchildren.

Judy was raised on a farm outside Osceola, MO and lived on
farms all of her life. She had a passion for horses and cattle
(no fondness for hogs), participating in trail rides, and raising
her boys in 4H and FFA. She was tough as woodpecker lips,
determined, persistent, and wasn't afraid to tear into anything
working on motorcycles with her boys, her cars, trucks, and
farm machinery.

Judy was a member of the Osceola Community Church, and
supported the "Helen M. Johnson Memorial Animal Shelter"
in Osceola, MO. She retired as a Missouri State Employee in
2000 but found she still needed something to do and returned
to work several more years at the St. Clair County
Courthouse.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the "Helen M. Johnson Memorial Animal Shelter".
