Judy Alice Pezanowski, 69, of Isle of Palms, SC, went to be with her Lord and Savior, and to rejoin her husband, Deacon Pez, on Friday, April 28, 2017.

She was born on May 26, 1947 in Millen, Georgia to the late Edward and Launa Dickerson.

Judy graduated Screven County High School in Sylvania, GA and then attended Armstrong College in Savannah, Georgia. While attending college she met her beloved husband of 50 years, Deacon “Pez” Pezanowski. After working in the public sector for several years Judy found her calling and began serving the parish of Stella Maris Roman Catholic Church. Her journey evolved as a dedicated and loving church secretary, and then grew into many fulfilling roles with over 36 years of service. Judy’s final role at Stella Maris was to serve as the Director of Inreach Ministries. During her tenure at Stella Maris Judy obtained a degree in Theology. Her family will remember her as a loving wife, mother, grandmother, great grandmother, sister and friend.
