Indianapolis - Laura Ann Judkins, 64, went home to be with the Lord Friday, November 23, 2018.

Laura was born March 27, 1954 in Indianapolis, IN. Her family described her as a devoted mother and wife. She also served as caretaker for many outside her family. Her passion for animals and children and her dedication to her husband and family was incredible. Laura was one who, at the drop of a hat, would always put others’ needs in front of her own. During good times and bad, she was always there for anyone who needed her. She had a way of always making everyone feel special.

Laura is survived by her beloved husband of 46 years, Tim Judkins; daughter, Angela Judkins; mother, Dorine Swartz and her husband, Roy; brother, Robert Fredrick and his wife, Sherri; and many other loving family members and friends.

Laura’s family will receive friends Thursday, November 29, 2018, from 11 am – 1pm, at Newcomer Cremations, Funerals & Receptions, 925 East Hanna Avenue, Indianapolis, IN 46227.

“Her sweet gentle voice will forever ring in our ears. Her warm embrace will forever be missed. Her sarcasm will forever make us giggle. Her sweet laugh and precious smile will linger with us until we meet again.”
