Judith Eileen Boyer

Judith Eileen Boyer, 76, of Watsontown, went to be with her Lord and Savior on Thursday, August 18, 2016 at her home.

She was born May 2, 1940 in New Columbia, a daughter of the late Willis and Pauline (Hoffman) Hause. On March 12, 1960, she married Robert Boyer "Barber Bob" and together they celebrated 48 years of marriage before his death on May 22, 2008.

Judith was a 1958 graduate of Milton High School.  She worked for a short time at the former B.O. Daubert, Lewisburg.  She later spent her days raising and taking care of her family.

Judith was a longtime member of Trinity United Methodist Church, New Columbia, where she was the choir director and organist. 

Early in life she enjoyed bowling in her ladies league in Milton.  She was also a girl scout leader and den mother.   Judith loved spending time in her yard, growing flowers and listening to music.

Her faith was also very important to her as was evident by her teaching of Sunday school through the years.  She was also active with her sisters and niece in their own Christian singing group.

Judith was an avid sports fan and loved the Pittsburgh Steelers, Philadelphia Phillies and Penn State.  Most important to her was spending time with her children and grandchildren.
