Judith Mae Rossiter, 68, passed away Sunday, Dec. 11, 2011, at a local hospital.

She was born Jan. 30, 1943, to Ralph W. Rossiter and Freda Mae Thornton, in Pocatello.

In her youth, she loved to dance and studied dance at Kasai Dance Studio. She learned toe, tap, ballet, acrobat and baton. She also studied the violin and the flute. She attended school in Bonneville and Franklin counties and graduated from Pocatello High School in 1961.

She married Blaine Fullmer in 1961. They eloped with their friends Sue King and Gene Klassen on the night Sue and Judy graduated from high school. Judy and Blaine had three sons together: Mikel, Shawn and Glen. They later divorced.

Judy worked as a clerk at Knievel's Grocery and Bengal Jiffy Mart, and did housekeeping for some Pocatello residents, all while she was furthering her education at Idaho State University earning a bachelor's degree in social work. She, at times, worked two jobs with her degree as a social worker and as a CNA at the former PRMC.

Judy belonged to TOPS and enjoyed her meetings and picnics. She was also an avid movie buff and enjoyed knitting, crocheting, camping, and especially loved her grandchildren.

She is survived by her two sons, Mikel (Ginger) Fullmer and Shawn (Susan) Fullmer, both of Pocatello; mother, Freda Lorain of Seattle; two brothers, Gary (Ulricke) Rossiter and Scott (Maureen) Rossiter; sisters, Katherine Rossiter, Lynn (Gene) Liljenquist, Kerri Rossiter and Dallas Lorain; and six grandchildren, Amanda, Rachael, Ashley, Katelyn, Allison and Blaine.

She was preceded in death by her father; ex-husband; son, Glen; and one infant brother.

Memorial services will be held at 11 a.m. Thursday, Dec. 29, at Colonial Funeral Home, 2005 S. Fourth Ave. in Pocatello. The family will receive friends from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. prior to the services.
