Judith Ann Pinks, 73, of Charlotte, Michigan, passed away peacefully at her home on June 2, 2025. She was born on January 22, 1952, in Grand Rapids, Michigan, the daughter of Harold and Edith Christopher.
She married Jeffrey Pinks on December 16, 1975. Together, they lived a humble, peaceful life and built a family grounded in love and strength that includes two children: Jamie (Michele) Pinks and Wendy Pinks; six grandchildren: Taylor (Jeremy), Kennedy, Logan, Tanner, Kylee, and Damian; and three great-grandchildren: Chase, Deacon, and Hazel.
Judy spent much of her time volunteering at the Eaton Community Palliative Care Thrift Store, where she made lasting contributions and formed friendships. She had a deep love for quilting, antiquing, and birdwatching. She enjoyed listening to Blackberry Smoke. She was a proud member of a local button club, an avid NASCAR fan, and looked forward to watching the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show each year.
She will be remembered for her warmth, grace, and unwavering love for her family. Her JELL-O birthday cakes were a highlight, a sweet tradition everyone looked forward to. She was also known for the sparkle of her rings and bracelets — always worn, always her — a quiet reflection of her vibrant personality.
Judy will be greatly missed but never forgotten.
Per her wishes cremation has taken place. A memorial service is being planned and details will be announced as soon as they become available.
