Judith Lynn Telfer, age 78, passed away on November 17, 2024, in Casper, Wyoming. Judy, as she was affectionately known, was a kind, generous, and deep – loving woman.
Judy was born in Hutchinson, Kansas on October 8, 1946, to Laura and Charles Rodgers. In 1947 Charles and Laura moved to Casper, Wyoming, while Judy was still young. In 1965, Judy graduated from Natrona County High School and went on to Casper College with no degree. Judy did small jobs here and there, she then started working at Natrona County Memorial Hospital. She worked for the hospital for 25 years plus, as a Surgical Sterilization Technician. She Loved her job and the people she worked with. When she wasn’t at school or work, Judy could be found at home helping her mother with her younger siblings Kim and Shelli.
In the fall of 1993, Judy met Robert “Bob” Telfer, the love of her life, and in July of 1994 they wed. Although they didn’t have children of their own, they shared many wonderful memories and loved each other deeply. It also never stopped Judy from being a maternal figure to her many nieces and nephews.
Judy was deeply involved in her community and a member of the Casper Seventh – Day Adventist Church. Her kindness and compassionate nature touched the lives of many, making her a cherished figure both within her family and the broader community.
Judy was a woman of many passions, including crafts and spending time with her loved ones. Her home was often filled with the joy and laughter of family fathering, and she was particularly fond of her role as an aunt.
She leaves behind her sisters, Kimberly Smith (Rodgers), and Shelli Briels (Rodgers), Jim Briels (Brother-in-law), and many nieces and nephews who will miss her dearly. Judy was preceded in death by her parents, Laura Maxine Rodgers (Ketchum) and Charles Leland Rodgers, her beloved husband Robert Telfer, her brother Kenneth Lee Rodgers, and her great nephew Travis Lee Rodgers.
A service to honor Judy’s life will be held on December 6th at 1 p.m. at the Casper Seventh – Day Adventist Church. Her life’s impact and the memories shared will continue to resonate with all who knew her.
