Judy Kay Hynnek, the daughter of Guinivere Frances (Beard) and L. Donald John was born January 28, 1941 in Bedford, Iowa. Judy was raised by her grandmother, Lillian Maloy Gilleland following the death of Judy’s mother in 1947.  Judy and Dallas were married September 15, 1964 in Bedford, Iowa. Judy, Dallas and son Mark made their home in Brooks, Iowa. In 2007, after the death of husband Dallas, Judy moved to Westgate Housing where she resided until 2018 when she moved to Accura Healthcare in Stanton, Iowa due to declining health.


Judy enjoyed her home and entertaining friends and family, community members, and especially her beloved Gourmand Club through the years. Judy was a colorful person, her favorite color was purple, but loved it all. She also enjoyed flowers, birds, sewing, crafting, quilting - including Hawaiian Quilting with daughter-in-law Sarah. Reading, watching movies - especially old movies, and collecting dragonflies in various forms, along with other interests. Judy also enjoyed traveling. While her son Mark was in the Navy, she had a good reason to travel to many wonderful places. Judy laughed and loved and was known to keep life lively. She would want her life to be celebrated.


Judy worked as a hairdresser and cosmetologist. In addition to working in a salon, she enjoyed using this talent with community theater and helping to prepare the departed at a local funeral home. Later in her life she worked at Main Street Corning, Country Haven, Choices and as a CMA at Corning Nursing and Rehab.
