A daughter of the late Ethel Swaney, she was born in Uniontown on June 11, 1942. A lifelong resident of Belle Vernon, Judy’s favorite pastime was football, especially her Steelers.

In addition to her mother, she was preceded in death by her beloved husband of 47 years, Robert L. Mason; and in-laws Lowman and Eleanor Mason. Judy will be missed by many.
