Judy Darlene Pell

Passed Away on March 3, 2026

Judy Darlene Pell passed away peacefully, surrounded by her family, at the age of 79 on March 3, 2026.  She was born on August 15, 1946 in Madera, California to Carl and Veda Teague.  She grew up in Yuma, Arizona and always enjoyed visiting her family and hometown, though she lived in Mesa, Arizona for most of her adult life.

Judy worked in banking for many years and loved helping customers with their financial needs.  She took an early retirement from the bank at a relatively young age because she said she wanted to be able to enjoy her older years and not work through them- a decision she never regretted.  She spent her retirement helping care for her grandchildren, quilting, gardening, cooking, and traveling as much as she could.

Judy loved her family and friends very much and was always there to help her loved ones in any way she could.  She was funny with a snarky sense of humor, had a bold personality, and wasn’t afraid to speak her mind.  Our beloved matriarch will be greatly missed by her two daughters, three grandchildren, three great-grandchildren and many extended family members and friends, all of whom she loved and cared for deeply.
