Judy Endress

February 11, 2026

Judy Endress passed away peacefully surrounded by loved ones on February 11, 2026.

Judy was an accomplished local artist whose talent was only surpassed by her kindness, compassion and southern charm. Her heart was big, her smile bright and her hugs abundant. She will be deeply missed by all those who knew and loved her.

Judy was preceded in death by her husband, James A. Endress, and her daughter, Amy E. Croot. She is survived by her daughter, Amanda L. Endress (Michael E. Luczak).

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Judy's honor to Second Harvest Food Bank of Northeast Tennessee.
