Judy Ann Cameron, beloved wife, sister, and mother went to be with her
God and be reunited with her husband on August 14, 2019.
Judy was born and raised in Artesia, New Mexico. In her youth, she
was active in band, twirling, life-guarding, and Girl Scouts. After
high school, Judy was band Majorette and earned a BA degree in
Psychology at Abilene Christian College. Following graduation, she
was an ambassador in President LBJ’s War on Poverty, before marrying
her college sweetheart, James Cameron, and settling down to raise
children as a full-time homemaker. Following his career assignments,
they lived in McAllen, Wichita Falls, and Pampa, Texas before moving
to Elk City, Oklahoma.
She was an active volunteer in her kids’ school activities, serving
as Scout leader, PTA president, and in several Booster Club
leadership positions. She was a lifelong member of the church of
Christ, joyfully following the Lord and sharing her faith. She
especially enjoyed children’s ministry, being a longtime classroom
curriculum coordinator and teacher of two-year-olds. She lovingly
raised three of her own children and cared for three foster babies.
As an adult she enjoyed acapella gospel music, sewing clothes,
quilting, miscellaneous collecting, OU sports, shopping, and playing
with her grandkids. Her cheerful and out-going personality helped
her make friends quickly, and she rarely met a stranger. Judy was
caring, trusting, and generous to a fault. She also enjoyed sharing
time with the elderly and those with special needs through Meals on
Wheels. Widowed in 1999, she moved to Denver, Colorado in 2008 to be
closer to her family and stayed there until her death.
Judy is preceded in death by her parents Wayne and Odell Adkins, her
husband James Cameron, her in-laws Loyal and Willie Belle Cameron,
her uncles Claude, Jim, and Richard Davidson, and uncle Grant
Adkins.
She is survived by her brother David and wife Sherri Adkins, uncle
Gerald Adkins, children Cory and wife Kelley Cameron, Jason and wife
Aimee Cameron, and Cambra and husband Barrett Koczkur, grandchildren
McKenzie, Cole, and Tatum Cameron, Hunter Cooper, Kathleen
Cooper-Cameron, and Daniel and Ember Koczkur. She also leaves
several living cousins, nieces, and nephews.
