In the fabric of love, our hearts are sewn.
Threads of laughter, love and even tears,
weave together the tapestry of our years.
In every stitch, we can see your face,
A sibling's bond, an unbreakable grace.
Forever connected, though paths may part,
You're the echoing beat within our hearts.
Judy Ann Howell was wrapped in angel wings and carried to heaven on October 13, 2026, ending her battle with breast cancer, pain and suffering. Judy was born to the late Thomas Lee Howell and Sandra Kay Howell on April 21, 1969 in Grosse Pointe, Michigan.
She was the third of four children who all shared a beautiful and close bond. She was single and had no children of her own but treated her nephew, niece, and great nephews and nieces as if they were her own, spoiling and loving them.
She was a quiet, private, and loving person, yet was strong, stubborn and didn't easily give up or quit.
She would do anything for family, friends and sometimes even complete strangers. Her smile and laugh lit up the room and was contagious.
Judy was 24 when she began working at the Roseville Home Depot where she was still employed after 33 years. She was a hardworking, dedicated employee and considered her coworkers her second family.
Judy's favorite things to do were to come home from a long days work, hang out with her best friend Luna (her dog), play video games, do her art, watch movies and/or sports, listen to music, or just curl up with a good book and read.
She touched many, many lives, was loved by many and will be forever missed.
Judy is survived by her siblings, Tammy Lynn Howell, Sheila (David) Novak, Thomas Jason Howell; Nephew, David (Bry) Novak; niece, Sara Kristen Novak; 6 great-Nephews and great-nieces; Aunt Brenda Trevino; and many cousins. She was preceded in death by her parents, Thomas Lee and Sandra Kay Howell; and many Aunts, Uncles, and cousins.
Visitation will be held at Kaul Funeral Home, 27830 Gratiot Ave., Roseville, Michigan 48066, on October 20, 2026, from 2:00 pm to 8:00 pm, with the Funeral Service at Kaul Funeral Home on October 20, 2026, at 6:00 pm.
