Judy Seltzer – Obituary

As a young woman, Judy became very interested in flying and moved to Lock Haven to learn to fly Piper Cubs. That adventure took her to Sweetwater, TX where she became a proud member of the Women’s Air Service Pilots (W.A.S.P.) an innovative organization during WWII that paved the way for today’s women.
She played the trumpet in The Repaz Band from Williamsport, and loved the band members and the joy of bringing music into the lives of others.
She also enjoyed writing poetry and sharing her creativity with her friends, family, and community.
Judy belonged to St. Luke’s United Church of Christ.
Judy is survived by her two children, Barbara White, of Stephenson, VA (husband, Ron and daughter, Meg) and Fred Seltzer (wife, Elaine and their children, Mary Ann and husband, Michael Johnson, Michael and wife, Meghan Seltzer, and Joan and husband, Scott Kemerer and their families.
