![]() Judith Ann Crawley Johnson 71 of Lexington Park, MD passed away on December 12, 2012 at Hospice House of St. Mary's, Callaway, MD. Born February 18, 1941 in Kansas City, MO, she was the daughter of the late Hubert Frazier Crawley and Bernadine (Fearon) Crawley.
Judy attended Bishop Miege High School (class of '59) in Roeland Park, KS, and attended Loretto Heights College in Denver. As a strikingly beautiful young woman, Judy often modeled in fashion shows along with her mother and siblings in Kansas City's upscale Country Club Plaza stores. Judy's early career was spent as a TWA airline stewardess. During long international flight layovers, Judy enjoyed exploring the many cities she came to love, including Lisbon, Madrid, Paris, Rome and Frankfurt. After raising her family in Boulder, CO, Judy moved to Deerfield Beach, FL, where she worked as an administrative assistant and enjoyed the sunny climate. She spent the last few years in MD bravely battling health issues, as she wanted to be near her family, whom she loved dearly. Judy was an enthusiastic and wonderful cook and loved sharing her many recipes. She had a wonderful sense of humor, admirable spirit of generosity, and a big, loving heart. As a devout Catholic, Judy's unwavering faith was her rock of support. She was predeceased by her parents, Hubert and Bernadine Crawley, who were longtime Kansas City residents. Judy is survived by her daughter Amy Burvant Gass (William) of Solomons Island, MD, son David Burvant of Fruita, CO; grandchildren, Cody and Michaela Burvant, and Elizabeth and Colin Heath; and her siblings, David Crawley of Ennis, MT, Martha Crawley of Denver, CO, Betsy Sykes of Cedar Park, TX and Helen Drake of Larkspur, CA. A memorial mass will be held on January 5, 2013 at 11:00 a.m. at Immaculate Heart of Mary Church in Lexington Park, MD. In lieu of flowers, charitable donations may be made in Judy's memory to: The Hospice House of St. Mary's, P.O. Box 625, Leonardtown, MD 20650.
