Born Jan. 4, 1948 to the late Stanley and Elizabeth Kordenbrock, Judy had been a resident of Dawson County for the past 12 years, coming from Michigan.

A loving wife and mother, she enjoyed the simple things in life. Judy was an avid gardener who enjoyed maintaining her lawn and spent the majority of her time there.

She also enjoyed fishing and was a member of a bowling league in Cumming. A selfless friend and neighbor, she was loved by all.

Survivors include her husband of nearly 53 years, Clarence Keaton; and a son, Ron Keaton, both of Dawsonville; various other relatives also survive.

The family is planning a private memorial service at a later date.
