Judith Kay Corcoran, born May 20, 1950, to James L. and Luella M. Corcoran, passed away peacefully on February 17, 2026, surrounded by the love of her family.

Judith devoted her life to those she loved most. She is survived by her daughters, Kim Corcoran Bice, Kelly Corcoran Jones, and stepdaughter, Letha Cranson. Her legacy continues through her grandchildren: Shade and Sage Henderson, Kreyl Hall, Jakeb McClure, Grace Bice, Shana Good, Shayla Callaway, Ty Willis, Austin and Kyra Marlatt, and Calvin Cranson. Her great-grandchildren—Isabella and Blake Hall, Rhiannon and Sora Henderson, Mille McClure, Bella Girard, Laylynn Good, Remy Willis, and Waylon Babb—were the light of her life and her greatest joy.

She is also survived by her brothers Randolph Corcoran and Joseph Corcoran, several nieces and nephews along with many extended family members and friends who will miss her dearly.

Judith was preceded in death by her parents, James L. and Luella M. Corcoran; her brothers, James (Pat), Michael, Timothy, and Daniel Corcoran; her sister, Wendy Reynolds; her son, James Marlatt Jr.; and her great-grandson, Blayne Anthony Webb.

Judith worked as a property manager for many years before retiring. She was known for her strong work ethic, dependability, dedication and her love for taking care of her elderly residents. Outside of her career, her heart belonged to her family. She cherished every moment spent with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, celebrating milestones and creating lasting memories.

A woman of faith, Judith put her trust in God and carried that faith with quiet strength throughout her life. She also had a deep love of crafting, finding joy and creativity in the beautiful things she made—many of which will remain treasured keepsakes for those she loved.

Judith will be remembered for her devotion to family, her steady faith, and the warmth she brought into the lives of others. Though she will be deeply missed, her love and legacy will live on in the generations she nurtured.

Visitation for family and friends will take place on Friday, February 20, 2026, from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m., followed by a memorial service.
