Judy Ann Liatys, 72, of Yardville, passed away peacefully on Monday, March 16, 2026  at Fox Chase Cancer Center, Philadelphia, PA, surrounded by her loving family.

Born in Trenton, she was a lifelong area resident and had called Yardville home for the past 30 years. Earlier in her life, Judy and her husband Ed lived in Germany from 1970 to 1972 while Ed proudly served in the United States Army. Following his honorable discharge, they returned home and settled in Yardville, where they built their life together.

Early in her career, Judy was employed at Tee Cee’s Deli before going on to work at ACME Markets in Yardville, where she dedicated 20 years of service. Known for her kind heart and gentle nature, Judy was truly a sweet and caring soul who always made sure those around her were happy. She consistently put the needs of her loved ones before her own and was happiest when caring for others.

In her spare time, Judy enjoyed playing Bingo, feeding the birds, and spending time with animals of all kinds, which she loved dearly.
