Judith Hudson, a beacon of resilience, love and devotion, passed away peacefully on November 7, 2026, surrounded by her family. Born on Oct. 18, 1944, in Greer, South Carolina, Judith was the beloved daughter of the late Claude and Ida Dobbins.
Judith's life was enriched by the love of her late brothers, Jerry, Bobbi, and Rolland Dobbins, her sister Diane Odom, her children Ellen Freeland and Tony Clark, her granddaughter Jessica Freeland, and her long-time partner Mack Cantrell. Though they have passed before her, their memories remain cherished in her heart and the hearts of those who knew them.
She is survived by her four grandchildren, Carsen and Zachary Freeland and Lane and McKenzie Clark, who were the light of her life. She is also survived by her beloved daughter-in-law, Jennifer Clark Nicholas.
Her resilience in the face of life's challenges and devotion to God and her family was a testament to her character, inspiring all who had the privilege to know her.
A private celebration of life will be held to honor Judith's life, in accordance with her wishes.
The family kindly requests that, in lieu of flowers, donations be made to the American Cancer Society, based in Atlanta, Georgia, in her memory to honor her son, Tony Clark.
Her spirit will live on in the hearts of her family and friends, and her memory will forever be a guiding light for those who knew and loved her.
