Judith Hattie passed away peacefully at Pinawa Hospital on November 8, 2021.
Judy was born and raised in Winnipeg, growing up in East Kildonan with her parents John and Peggy Yaremchuk, and brother Gerald. After achieving her MSc in biology, she took up teaching, first in Whitemouth, where she met John Hattie, with whom she would spend 44 happy years, and then to Beausejour, spending her 35 year career encouraging her students to love and respect the natural world. She was very proud of her students, and always glad to hear updates from them after graduation.
She spent her retired years with husband John, and daughter Charlotte, focusing on the interests dearest to her heart: her family, menagerie of animals, gardening, home design and decoration, and the crossword puzzles that she and Charlotte worked on together.
Judy was a warm and wonderful woman, the bedrock of her family, and will be desperately missed by the family and friends who loved her. She was predeceased by John, and her parents, and is survived by daughter Charlotte, and brother Gerald.
According to her wishes, cremation has taken place, and no service will be held. In lieu of a formal service, let her memory be a blessing, and she would be honored best by planting a tree, a garden, or helping animals in need.
