Mary D. Judge Ecton, 71, of Concord, NC died peacefully at home surrounded by family on Monday, November 5, 2018. Mary was the daughter of the late James and Elizabeth Irvin Judge. Mary was born on July 8th, 1947 in Mt. Sterling, KY and lived in Nicholas County until relocating to Concord in 1982 with her family.
Mary worked for The Deposit Bank in Carlisle, KY for 17 years until moving to NC. Once in NC, she devoted much of her time to her children. Once they were grown she went to work at the Kannapolis Target, where she later retired after 17 years, mostly working in their pharmacy.
Mary was a devoted wife and mother. Her greatest joy was spending time with her children and grandchildren. She was a selfless, patient, and determined lady. Mary loved to cook, especially at holidays, and enjoyed the relentless pursuit of a bargain.
Mary is survived by her husband of 50 years, Paul, their children Jay and Beth, and two precious granddaughters, Addison and Emma Ecton. Mary is also survived by brothers Jimmy (Kathleen) Judge, Charles (Judy) Judge, Paul Judge, Robert Judge and sister, Libby Moss. Preceding her in death, in addition to her parents, were siblings Fay Ann Ervin, Michael Judge and sister-in-law Nancy Judge.
In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Cold Springs United Methodist Church or Hospice & Palliative Care of Charlotte.
A service for Mary was held at Cold Springs United Methodist Church on Saturday, November 10th, 2018. Carolina Cremation is assisting the Ecton family.
