Judith Harrington
A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date. Details will be announced. Interment will take place at St. Leo Catholic Cemetery in Friendship, Wisconsin.
Judith was born on October 25, 1944, in Montague, Michigan, to Joseph and Lillian Bromley. She grew up in Michigan and attended school there before moving to West Chicago, Illinois. It was there she met the love of her life, Lowell Gustav Harrington Jr. The couple was united in marriage on January 22, 1966, in Wheaton, Illinois, and made their home in the Chicago suburbs.
Judith worked as a secretary in a law office and later moved with her family to Adams County, Wisconsin, in 1982. She and Lowell became devoted foster parents and lovingly helped raise over 52 children throughout their lives.
She had a deep love for crafting, sewing, quilting, flowers, and gardening. Judith was also a faithful member of St. Joseph’s Catholic Church.
She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Lowell; her brother, Jim; and her sister-in-law, Jeanie.
Judith is survived by her children: BJ (Nichole) Harrington of Adams and Wendy (John) Golden of Necedah; her siblings: Marsha, Sue (Rich), and Dan; her sister-in-law: Judy (Rich) Merrill; her cherished grandchildren: Bradley, Courtney, Tyler, Dalton, Dylan, Kelsi, Heather, and Tabitha; and her great-grandchildren: Chloe, Kinley, Brantley, Bennett, Annabelle, Sophie, and Carsen.
Memorials may be directed in Judith’s memory to the National Kidney Foundation.
