Obituary - Judy C. Siemon

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 of Osceola, MO and lived of 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.
