Judy Lynn Dison

With heavy hearts and immense sadness, we announce the passing of Judy Lynn Dison, lovingly known to so many as “Nanny,” on May 26, 2026, at the age of 73. Judy was the heart of her family — a devoted wife, loving mother, proud grandmother and great-grandmother, and a loyal friend to everyone fortunate enough to know her. She lived a life centered around love, family, and caring for others. Her kindness, warmth, and strength left a lasting impact on every person who crossed her path. To know Judy was to know unconditional love. She had a way of making everyone feel welcomed, comforted, and cared for. Whether through her warm hugs, comforting words, home-cooked meals, laughter, or simply her presence, she made life brighter for the people around her. She was the kind of person who put others before herself and loved her family with her whole heart. Judy was especially known for her incredible cooking and canning. She fed more people throughout her life than anyone could possibly count, and no one ever left her home hungry. Her kitchen was a place of comfort, gathering, and love — always filled with good food, conversation, and warmth. Family, friends, neighbors, and anyone lucky enough to sit at her table knew they were being cared for in the purest way. Her recipes, traditions, and memories made around her table will be treasured for generations to come. Some of the most cherished memories shared by her family were the simple moments spent together — holidays, conversations around the table, visits filled with laughter, and the countless ways she showed up for the people she loved. Her family was her greatest joy and proudest accomplishment. Judy is survived by her loving husband, Larry Dison (Popa); her daughters, Wendy Harlan (Patrick), Lisa Jones, and Amy Dison (Shane). She is also survived by her sisters, Linda Putman (Dale), and Dana Standford Mullins (Michael). She also leaves behind her beloved grandchildren: Alexander, Jill, Clara, Samantha, Owen, Jordan, Jake, and Bria. Along with several great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews, extended family members, and dear friends who will forever cherish her memory. She was preceded in death by her father Charlie Standford, her sister Brenda Standford, and her grandson Jake Tuck. Though her family’s hearts are broken, they find comfort in knowing the love Judy gave so freely will continue to live through the many lives she touched. The lessons she taught, the memories she created, and the love she poured into her family will never fade. Those who knew Judy will always remember her beautiful heart, her strength through difficult times, her caring spirit, and the way she made everyone around her feel like family. She was deeply loved, and her absence will be felt every single day. A visitation will be held on Saturday, May 30, 2026, from 5 to 8pm at Limestone Chapel Funeral Home, with funeral services following on Sunday, May 31, 2026, starting at 2pm with graveside to follow. Judy will be deeply missed, forever loved, and never forgotten. Her memory will live in the hearts of all who knew and loved her.
