Judith (Judy) May Westland, age 67 of Hillsborough, NJ, formerly of Harborcreek, became an angel on Monday, December 4, 2023, in Hillsborough Township, following a brief illness. Judy and her twin brother, Bob, were born on Christmas Eve, 1955 in Warren, PA to parents, Chuck and Lolly Westland. She was the youngest daughter and lovingly referred to as "Judy-girl". Judy and her family moved to Harborcreek where she attended and graduated from Harbor Creek High School. She was employed in Erie at First National Bank in the trust department, later relocating to Florida and then New Jersey where she was considered a very valuable and knowledgeable Operational Assistant at AG Edwards Brokerage, which later became Wells Fargo Investments. In addition to her work, Judy loved visiting her family and friends, but also enjoyed her alone time with her TV. She had many, many friends and was always thought of as a very caring, loving, happy person. In recent years, her friends Carol Mercer and Diane Eberling and their families became her beloved "adopted" New Jersey sisters. Judy was preceded in death by her parents, Charles (Chuck) Westland and Laura (Messner) Westland. She is survived by six siblings; brothers: Charles (Kathy), Bill (Mary), Bob (Debbie), and Jim (Andi), and sisters: Sue (Chris) Stankiewicz and Gig (Pat) Fenell.
