Obituary

Judy Lynn Zuccala, age 75 of Goodyear, AZ died February 4, 2020 in Goodyear, AZ.  She was born July 8, 1944 and raised on a farm in Akron, IA.  She worked in the airline industry for over 30 years where she had the responsibility of managing the weight and balance of the aircraft.  She was hired by TWA and retired from American Airlines. Her husband, Ken Ridgway also worked for the airlines as a pilot and they retired together to the PebbleCreek community in Arizona.

When Ken passed away not long after retirement, Judy found friendship and a rich social life in her community.  She was a member of Lunch Bunch 2, and met for lunch with the group for 21 years.  She loved to sing (her license plate was NTEMAME) and was a member of the PebbleCreek Singers. She was a member of the Christ Evangelical Lutheran Church for over 20 years and faithfully sang in the choir and enriched the congregation.

Judy liked to sail and met her next husband, Joe through a sailing group.  Together they sailed through the Sea of Cortez, the British Virgin Isles, and from the Winward Islands down to the tip of Granada.

Judy is survived by her husband, Joe Zuccala, her brother Gaynor Klemme, and several step-grandchildren.  Condolences for the family may be left below.

    Dear Joe, Judy was a dear friend to me since I moved to Goodyear in 2003 and I cherished all of my time with her. What a gift she was to many people in many ways. Please reach out if there is anything I can to do help you. Unfortunately as you know, I’ve been where you are now and where you have been before. I am so glad you two found each other and enjoyed the time you had. May God’s loving arms surround you. Gayle Denny
