THOMPSON — Judith (Judy) Anne Thebado, 64, of Thompson, died Oct. 14, 2022, at the home she shared with her brother, Jeff.
Over the last 10 years or so, Judy was plagued with many medical issues, and she fought them all with courage and grace.  God saw just how much she was suffering and took her into His arms and brought her to her eternal home.
Judy was the middle child; the middle ‘J’. It was always ‘JanJoanJudyJeffJerry’!  She was born in Boulder, Colo., on March 29, 1958, to the late James H. Thebado (who passed away in 2016) and Jeanne E. (Sward) Thebado (who passed away in 2005).
Judy graduated in 1976 from Springfield High School in Springfield, Minn. She continued on to get her associate’s degree from the College of St. Benedict in St. Joseph, Minn.
After college, Judy moved to Minneapolis and worked at the Minneapolis St. Paul International Airport while attending school to become a travel agent. She found her passion for working with people and sending them on wonderful adventures.  Judy had her own adventures as well, Utah during her January break in college, Greece, Hawaii, Rome, and Mexico were some of her highlights.
Judy loved the ocean, the mountains, snow skiing, ceramics.  But most of all, she loved spending time with her family. We were blessed to have a family reunion at Judy and Jeff’s on Sept. 24, 2022, and she was in her glory. Judy was so happy that all four of her adored great-nieces and great-nephews were there, along with her niece and her nephews.
Judy had a deep faith and believed she would be reunited with her parents, grandparents, friends and relatives one day. She was a communicant of St. Mary’s Parish in Putnam.
She leaves by her sisters, Jan Beltis, of Pembroke, Mass., Joanie Beltis (Rick) of Dedham, Mass.; her brothers, Jeff Thebado, of Thompson, Jerry Thebado (his husband, Scott Smith), of Pembroke; niece, Allie Yarosh (Kris) and their children, Kellan and Shea, of Easton, Mass.; her nephews, Spencer Beltis (Molly) and their children, Zoie and Jackson, of Pembroke; Drew Beltis (partner, Brandon) of Brewster, Mass.; and, Garrett Beltis (husband Kayle Walls) of Stamford; cousin, Malinda Conley and her daughter, Kalena Conley of Highlands Ranch, Colo.; her godmother, Joanne Schwappach, of Denver; her great-aunt Shirley Mulig of Ohio; her second family, Jeanne and Jim McManus of Minnesota.
