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.

I was just getting on Judy’s FB page to wish her a belated birthday. I don’t even know what to say. I worked with her in STL for several years, and she and Captain Ken went to Austria with us several times. I have always considered her my dear friend, and I will always miss her. My comfort will be knowing that she is now healthy and whole in the arms of God. Rest well, my dear friend.

Joe I am so sorry just found out about this this last few days. We used to ride to work together when she first started with TWA when I first started with OZARK Airlines and I posted some old pictures of us on Facebook in in the Admirals club and then I got a message from one of our airline coworkers and she told me was so shocked. We were friends on Facebook and used to send Christmas cards but hadn’t heard from her in awhile. In some of her FB posts she seemed so happy with you.✝️ ❤️✈️
