Judy A. (Olt) Marsh

Austintown – Judy A. Marsh, 75, of Austintown, passed away Sunday evening, April 6, 2025 with her loving daughter and granddaughter by her side.

She was born July 15, 1949 in Lebanon, Pennsylvania, the daughter of Lloyd Olt and Lorraine Knapp and moved to Lake Milton as a child where she attended Jackson Milton High School.

Judy was employed in the restaurant and entertainment industry along with being a proud homemaker. She was a true matriarch for her family, always making them her top priority and looked forward to spending time with them. She loved to bake, and her family will miss all of her wonderful pastries, especially her kolachi, shoo-fly pie, bundt cake, sugar cookies and fabulous zucchini bread.  

Judy will be remembered for her smile, strength and strong will. She was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis at the age of 34 and lived an independent lifestyle until recently. She loved watching horror movies, playing cards, listening to music especially from the 50’s and was a huge Elvis fan. Judy also enjoyed playing bingo, crocheting, flowers, and gardening. She had an amazing green thumb! If the sun was out, she was basking in it while tending to her flower baskets.

Judy leaves behind to hold onto her memories two daughters Christine (Sam) Oliver of Canfield whom she referred to as her angel, and Peggy Poehler of Masury, her twelve grandchildren Matthew, Andrew, Courtney, Gianna, Michael, Amanda, Joseph, Hunter, Drew, Phillip, Zachary and Forrest, her many great grandchildren and a brother Lloyd (Rita) Olt Jr., along with nieces, nephews, cousins and friends. 

Judy was greeted at Heavens gates by her husband Larry L. Marsh, her beloved son Michael L. Marsh and her aunt Marion who doted upon her as her own daughter.  

Family and friends may pay their respects to Judy on Sunday, April 13, 2025 from 3:00 pm until 5:00 pm at the Rossi & Santucci Funeral Home, 4221 Market St., Boardman and again on Monday, April 14, 2025 from 10:00 am until 10:50 am in the chapel of St. Catherine of Siena Parish-St. Charles Borromeo Church, 7345 Westview Dr., Boardman, where a Funeral Mass will follow at 11:00 am with the Very Rev.
