Judith A. Ux

Mar 20, 1947 - Jan 25, 2026

New London

Judith A. Ux, 78, of New London, died Sunday, January 25, 2026, at Gaymont Care Center, Norwalk, with her family by her side. She was born March 20, 1947, in Dekalb, Illinois, the daughter of the late Harvey E. and Doris (Reynolds) Huggins.

After graduation, she moved to the Cleveland area before settling in New London around 1973. In her early years, Judith was employed by Sunrise Cooperative. She was a bus driver for New London Local School for 24 years and also worked in the cafeteria. Working alongside her children, she was actively involved in the 4-H program. She attended many horse shows, where she provided guidance and support to her family and others attending. Judith found great joy in being outdoors; she was always helping on the family farm, took time to watch for hummingbirds and loved her dachshunds. Lighthouses held a special place in her heart; she loved visiting them and collecting them. She was a huge support to her family, especially her grandchildren and was always there for them.

Judith is survived by her children, Tim (Beth) Houghtby of Natchitoches, Louisiana, Brian (Mary) Houghtby of Crestline, John (Annette) Ux II of Greenwich, and Heather (Ted) Ux of New London; grandchildren, Brielle, Jesamie, Adria, Maleah, Emmalyn, Matthew, Aubrey and Megan; great-grandchildren, Zayla, Brixyn, Hazel, Fisher and Penryn; and her brother, James (Kim) Huggins of Seneca, Illinois.

Her Funeral Service will begin at 4 p.m. Saturday. She will be laid to rest at Day Cemetery, New London, at a later date.

Memorial contribu-tions may be directed to Alzheimer's Association, 2508 North Reynolds Road, Toledo, OH 43615.

The family would like to thank Gaymont Care Center and Heartland Hospice for the exceptional care and compassion that Judith and their entire family received during her time with them.
