It is with sadness that we
announce that Judith "Judy" L. (Halstead) Rundell, 83 passed away on Sunday, July 27, 2025 at her home
in Copper Hill. She was born in White Plains, NY October 19, 1941 to E. Ruth
(Thatcher) Halstead and Francis Reed Halstead.
Judy was retired from The
Highland Falls Marina, on the Hudson river in NY which she co-owned and managed
with her husband of 41 years, Thomas "Tom" She also worked at West Point
Federal Credit Union for many years. In addition, she spent many years as a
volunteer in the Coast Guard Auxiliary.
After retirement in 2007, Judy

memories that filled their home and spilled over into several other buildings
on the 7 acre property including a chicken coop, a "general store', shop and
fifties room, Christmas teapot room and a number of other rooms all with their
own styles and themes.
She enjoyed traveling with Tom
and antiquing and amassed an amazing collection of antiques and other types of
memorabilia. (Beatrix Potter, tea pots and Carolers among them). She also loved
her two cats and many chickens.
She is survived by her husband,
Thomas (Tom) to whom she was married in 1984; as well as her two children, John Macedo III
