Judith “Judy” K. Hollingsworth

Judith “Judy” K. Hollingsworth, age 79, of Linton, passed away on Thursday, May 5, 2022, at Union Hospital in Terre Haute. She was born in Indianapolis on November 11, 1942, the daughter of James Reynolds, Virginia Ruth (Brown) Squire & Leonard Squire.

She was a graduate of Center Grove High School in Greenwood. She worked for 27 years at Zion’s Hill Baptist School in Linton as an art teacher. She attended Tennessee Temple College until being called to serve as an art teacher. She was a member of Bible Baptist Church in Dugger and took care of all the meals for the children who attended Vacation Bible School every summer for over 20 years. She also sang in the Gospelettes with her family. She cherished every single moment she got to spend with her children and she also cared for any other child who came into her life.
