Judith "Judy" Clayton passed away at Heritage Monona on Wednesday, Nov. 11, 2020, due to complications of Dementia. Judy was born on Aug. 5, 1942 in Dodgeville, Wis., to Jim and Lucy Clayton and moved to Madison at an early age. She graduated from Madison West and UW-Madison in 1964 with a degree in History.

Judy was a dedicated history teacher at Oregon from 1968-2002. After retirement she began her next "chapter of life." She enjoyed all of the special times with her dear friends, shopping and was a voracious reader of all kinds of books. Judy enjoyed participating in the Madison Civics and PLATO groups, was also an active member of WEAC for many years and actively supported her parties' candidates.

Judy's sisters and their families were everything to her and she loved all of the family gatherings, especially hosting Christmas Day.

Judy is survived by her sister, Bette (Bobeck) and her family, Jim, Sue (Ed), Dave (Sharon) and Steve (Kim). She is further survived by her sister Shirley's son, Jeff Puttkammer (Lindy). She was blessed to be not only an aunt, but a great-aunt to eight.

Judy was preceded in death by her parents; sister, Shirley and her husband, Paul Puttkammer; and Bette's husband, Herb.
