Judy Long

February 19, 2026

Judy passed peacefully, at home, surrounded by family after a brief but mighty battle with cancer, on Thursday, February 19th, 2026, at the age of 79.  Beloved wife of the late Alan Long (2014).  Dear mother of Ian Hunter and his wife April, and Laura Clarke and her husband George.  Treasured Grandma of Chloe and Liam Hunter, and Gavin and Tyler Clarke.

Judy had a generous soul and a great sense of loyalty to those she loved. She enjoyed her time at the cottage on Lake of Bays or playing a round of golf with friends.  Judy was a talented painter and was an avid supporter of SARI Therapeutic Riding.

Friends and family are invited to the visitation on Tuesday, February 24, 2026 from 6:00 – 9:00 p.m. at Westview Funeral Home & Cremation Centre, 709 Wonderland Road North, London. The funeral service will take place in the chapel on Wednesday, February 25, 2026 at 11:00 a.m.

Judy Long was more than someone I cared for — she was a light in every room she entered. As her PSW, I had the privilege of spending time with a woman whose warmth, wisdom, and lively spirit touched everyone around her. Her meaningful conversations, gentle advice, and ever-present smile reminded me daily of the value of kindness and connection. Even in quiet moments, Judy’s presence brought a sense of peace and grace. Though she is no longer with us, her laughter, compassion, and strength will always remain in the hearts of those she touched. Caring for Judy was an honor I’ll never forget. My prayers are with Ian and April,Laura and George and her grandchildren.

Dear Laura and Ian, I was so deeply saddened and heartbroken to hear about the loss of your mom. There truly are no words that can ease the pain of losing someone so special, but please know that my heart is with you and your family during this incredibly difficult time. Judy was such a kind, generous, and welcoming person, and I feel so grateful to have known her. I will always remember how she and Alan made me feel so supported during a time in my life when I desperately needed it. They had such a special way of making everyone feel welcome, and their unwavering love for their family was evident in everything they did. Their impact will never be forgotten. I hope you can find comfort in the beautiful memories you shared and strength in the love that surrounds you now. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers, and I am here for you in any way you need. With my deepest sympathy and love, Trish

I’m so sorry for your loss Laura, George and the boys. I got to know Judy last summer, she made a wonderful impression on me. She invited me to her cottage where she showed me warmth, kindness. She was an amazing woman with many talents. One of which was going up and down the hill to the lake at the cottage. She out paced me ! There are no words that I can say to ease your pain or loss but know that you and your family are n my prayers. May God comfort you, give you his peace at this difficult time.
