Judith Irene Glick was born March 20, 1933, to Cecil and Nellie May (Sealls) Glick in Anamosa, Iowa. She graduated from Olin High School in 1950, then from Iowa State Teacher’s College (UNI) in 1952 with a Kindergarten-Primary diploma. She taught second grade at Colesburg for three years. Judy married Vincent Diers on July 23, 1955, at St. Patrick’s Church in Colesburg. The family moved to Walnut Creek, California, and Judy worked several clerical jobs until becoming a full time mother. Judy was involved in volunteer work for the Girl Scouts, school, and charities. After 24 years, the family moved back to Iowa where Judy worked part time while still being a full time mother. She was an active member and volunteer at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church, Mount Vernon for 41 years.

She enjoyed gardening flowers, crocheting Afghans, reading, and especially cooking, baking, and spending cherished time with her children and grandchildren and attending their activities. Judy was a humble person who was a friend to many—she easily made friends everywhere she went.

She was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Vince; brother, Bruce Glick; several aunts, uncles, and extended family members; and grand-dog, Lenny.

Memorials may be directed to St. John the Baptist Catholic Church or to the family to honor Judy through Masses.

For those who are not able to make the services in person, family and friends are invited to watch a live stream of the service on Facebook. Please search for and ask to join Remembering Judith Diers group page for more information.
