Obituary

Judith A. (Rynn) Dockeray, age 87 of New Holland passed away peacefully on December 13, 2023 at Garden Spot Village where she resided the past 10 years. She was born in Shenandoah to the late Anna Grace (Hooks) Rynn and Donald Rynn. Judy's greatest joy was raising their children alongside her husband, Hugh L. Dockeray. In addition to raising her family and managing a household, she worked full time at Penn State Wilkes-Barre Campus and then as an LPN after attending nursing school at the age of 49 years old. Before moving to Garden Spot Village, Judy had lived in northeastern Pennsylvania most of her life, then in Charlottesville, Virginia before moving back to Collegeville in 1992. After moving to Garden Spot Village, Judy became involved in Caring Connections, visiting skilled care residents, Village Voices, and volunteering in the many activities that GSV had to offer. Judy and Hugh became well known in the community for their hours of volunteering as well as their "Morning and Evening Walks" where they walked every day holding hands and saying "Good Morning" to their neighbors and friends. Judy is survived by her husband of 68 years, Hugh L. Dockeray; three children, Bill & Mary Dockeray of Shavertown, Laurie & Scott Vercoe of Malvern and Susan Fischer & her fiancé Bill Weismuller of Chicago Illinois; four grandchildren, Bryan & Karyn Vercoe, Will Dockeray, Patrick Dockeray and Travis Vercoe; and two great-grandchildren, Aubrey & Grayson Vercoe. A Celebration of Life Service will be held at a later date. Interment will take place in Odd Fellows Cemetery, Shenandoah Heights. In lieu of flowers, please support the Garden Spot Village Benevolent Fund at www.gardenspotvillage.org/charitable-giving/.
