Judith Ann Minzer, age 83, of New Port Richey, Florida, passed away peacefully at Hospice on June 24th, 2024.
Judie may have left this world, but her legacy lives on through her three children, Dale (Michael) Holbrook, Elise (Lance) Kittrell, and Randy (Angela) Minzer. Her love and devotion to her family will never be forgotten, especially by her four beloved grandsons, Ryan (23), Kyle (22), Jesse (17), and Evan (10). Judie’s passion for being a grandmother was unmatched, and her time spent with her grandsons was truly precious. Judie’s love for her cats was also evident, as she treated each one like royalty. Judie’s dedication to her community was inspiring, as she volunteered countless hours at the Boys & Girls Club of Pinellas Park and played the piano at St. Stephen Lutheran Church. Judie was an avid sports fan who enjoyed cheering on Florida State University football and NASCAR. In her younger years, Judie even raced drag cars, showcasing her adventurous spirit. Her competitive nature was also evident in her love for bowling, as she participated in numerous leagues.
Her legacy will continue to inspire and uplift those around her as a celebration of Judie’s life will be take place on Saturday, August 3, 2024, at 1pm, at GT Church Assembly of God, located at 4200 17th Avenue North, St. Petersburg, FL 33713.
In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the Humane Society of Pinellas or Suncoast Hospice.

You taught me how to be a grandma, you always blessed me with a Christmas ornament. We share tears, laughs and our children.
Most of all we share Jesus.
You will always be my Thelma and I will always be Louise.
Save a place for me I will be there soon.

Judie (JAM) was a classmate and whose friendship of almost 70 years was very special even tho we hadn’t seen each other since she left NJ but we did stay in touch with humorous messages and updates of our group which consisted of 3 Judys and 3 Pats.
She was especially proud of her family and loved to share stories about them. Will miss our communications. May she Rest In Peace. Love from another Judy (JAB) Beecher

Judie and I met and bonded when we were 15 and both the new kids in town. She was with me the night I met the boy who later became my husband and was a bridesmaid in our wedding. We never lived close to each other again but managed to share visits occasionally. We were there for each other again when we went through the loss of our parents and for the ups and downs with our kids. In our later years we made many trips to FL and Judie was always one of our stops along the way. I was blessed to be able to spend my birthday this past March with her.
Until we meet again——
