Ray and Family,
   Please accept my sincere condolences at this most difficult time. When I visited NFMS and spoke to the eighth graders, I always looked forward to seeing my favorite contact person there. I relied on your Mom to give me the straight scoop on everything and everyone. We would have some good laughs. I enjoy my limited time with her on each visit. 
   You all are in my thoughts and prayers. I hope to see you soon.
Brendan 

To Ray, Tama, Brandon, and George;I missed  seeing  Judy at the DHS games  over the last  few  years! RIP Judy! You  were a true braveheart!     John  Mac.

Ray , Tama,, Ann.  Brendan and George,
       I met Judy in 1974 when language teachers in New Fairfield were teachers in both the HS and MS. I can't count the number of games that I shared with her over the years in both basketball and baseball in New Fairfield and Danbury and at her home on Barnum Road with the huge antenna on the roof so Ray could see all the games in the NCAA basketball tournament.     She will be missed.
                    Bill

I remember Judy well when I came onboard at MHHS.  Judy was a third grade teacher and we were both on the scholarship committee. When I came to new Fairfield middle school she was the eighth grade math teacher and good friends with my fishing friend Ken Reed. I enjoyed talking to her and getting her advice on how to handle kids. To me Judy originated the phrase “he’s some mother’s son” as well as “ The apple falls not far from the tree .” RIP Judy 😇

So sorry to hear about Judy’s passing.  I had the pleasure to work on Judy’s team for 10 years at the Middle School.  She was a wonderful teacher.  May your memories of her help get you through this sad time. 

I never got the pleasure of meeting mom. We were planning to get together this Spring before the pandemic. I'm glad I was able to crochet her shawl with enough time for her to enjoy it. I am so sorry for your loss. My prayers go out to you all. ❤

Dear Ray & family,
 
 We know how much you loved your Mom, always caring and concerned for her as the years went by. That alone tells us much about how important she was in all your lives.

Please accept our sincere condolences. Keep those memories alive, celebrate all the gifts  of life she gave you, and share stories of her . Memories are yours forever. ❤️

I was saddened to hear that your mom passed away and praying for your comfort and peace during this painful time.  Just want to let you know it was a real pleasure to  work with Judy for many years and also to have her friendship.  She will be remembered  in our hearts.

Ray & Tama,
    So sorry to hear about your Mom passing. My first year at New Fairfield I taught in the middle school. She was such a caring person  with a quick wit and a wonderful sense of humor. Professionally she was always so supportive and was a wonderful colleague. She was a special person.

Well “B” we had a great run together. Nothing can erase our fun times. So many wonderful memories. Rest in peace.

Judy was a great friend to the entire Pardalis family.  Tom first met Judy when he was Ray’s counselor at Green Knoll Day Camp. I shared car rides and bleachers at many, many games with Judy.  When my kids had Judy for Middle School math, she was that teacher who attended their basketball games. Over the years, she was a fixture at Danbury, New Fairfield and Western Connecticut games.  New Fairfield has lost a wonderful teacher, coach, neighbor, and friend. Ray, Tama and family, please take solace in knowing that your Mother was a wonderful person and a great lady and will be remembered fondly by all who had the privilege to be part of her life.  RIP dear Judy.

Tama and Ray, 
Our thoughts are with you  during this difficult time.  I will always remember "B" watching sports.  Whether it was her grandsons playing baseball or basketball or watching the DHS girls basketball team play, she rooted them all on.  
Know that we have you all wrapped in hugs.

Michelle, Bill, Sarah and  Emily

  

I only met Judy once with Tama but she was full of life and such a great person. Tama shared many adventures she had with "mom" and of course great photos of her enjoying her retired life in her senior care home. John and I send our love and care and prayers to your entire family. I know she will be missed by her family and friends.

In my early days in new Fairfield Judith was such a good  friend to me and our players  I will always  remember her caring  and kindness  so sorry Ray we all are with you  iin your grief my prayer and love for your family my ♥️🙏🙏🙏Coach Novak 

Dear Ray and Tama, I am very sorry to learn of your mom’s passing. She was a valued colleague for many years. It is never easy to lose a parent, yet this difficult time increases the stress especially because friends and relatives cannot be physically with you. 

Dear Ray, Tama and family,

Our deepest sympathy in the passing of your mom.  She was a special teacher whom I had the pleasure of teaching with during her career in New Fairfield.  She was a wonderful person.  May she Rest In Peace.

Joe and Pat Lopes

Ray and family,  I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your Mom.  It seems that she was a loving woman who was also the type of person that one loves to be around -- joyful, interesting, compassionate, and possessed of a healthy sense of humor.  I know that your loss is enduring yet so are the lifetime of memories and lessons learned.  Please accept my heartfelt condolences.  God bless you all.

Bob

Judith R. Bielizna 

August 23, 1936 - April 13, 2020

Judith “Judy” Bielizna passed away on the night of April 13, 2020, a victim of Covid-19.  She is survived by two children, Ray and Tama, and a daughter in law, Ann.  Also, she had two grandsons, Brendan and George, who she loved dearly.  She also leaves behind a dear longtime friend in Kenneth Reed.  Judy is predeceased by her husband George J. Bielizna who left us all too soon in 1969.

Judy grew up in Naugatuck, Connecticut where she developed an extraordinary love of sports.
She was an avid golfer, baseball and basketball fan.  She once scored 38 points in a basketball game.  


Judy graduated from Western Connecticut and became a teacher in New Fairfield, CT.  Over the course of 33 years she taught 3rd, 6th and 8th grade math.  She was known as a straight shooter, who called it the way she saw it.  Very smart with a keen sense of humor.  She was a dedicated teacher and truly earned the nickname “Mother Math” from her 8th grade students at New Fairfield Middle School.  

She was a big fan of the UConn men’s and women’s basketball teams.  Judy also was a long time supporter of the Danbury High School baseball and basketball programs, attending many, many games.  Tiger Woods was her favorite golfer and Pete Carroll was her favorite football coach.

Judy spent many summers relaxing with her family at Lake Quassapaug and also enjoyed trips to Rhode Island beaches.  She loved thick chocolate milkshakes and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.  

As a single parent Judy raised two children on her own.  She never missed a basketball, baseball, softball game or a musical performance or school play when one of her children was involved. 

Her go to golf shot was a nice bump and run with a 7-iron, and she often used the same purple golf ball for several consecutive rounds.  She will be missed by her friends and family.
