Judy Elaine Hundley, of Metamora, was born on September 4, 1959, the loving daughter of Edward Hundley and the late Vivian Carlton Hundley. A proud graduate of Brookville High School, Class of ’77, Judy went on to work for Sperry and Rice, as well as Kroger, where she was employed for many years. In her free time, Judy loved to tinker with cars and electronics. If something broke or wasn’t working properly, she was determined to figure it out. From weed eaters to tractors, there was little she wouldn’t take on. She also found great joy in gardening and caring for flowers, passions that brought her both peace and happiness. Judy was a deeply selfless person who truly loved taking care of others, always placing their needs before her own. On Friday, January 23, 2026, at the age of 66, Judy passed away peacefully after a lifelong battle at Ascension St. Vincent – Heart Center in Carmel.
Those surviving who will carry Judy’s legacy forward include her father, Ed Hundley; four siblings, Brenda (Cecil) Abshear, Vickie (Larry) Lomeli, Gary (Sonja) Hundley, and Debra Washington; sister-in-law, Cathy Hundley; chosen sister and best friend, Melinda Schwab, as well as numerous nieces, nephews and great nieces and nephews.
