Judith "Judi" Ann Benesh

Judith “Judi” Ann (Maurice) Benesh 79 of Marlborough passed away peacefully on Tuesday, October 22, 2024 surrounded by her loving family.

Judi was born in Westboro, MA the daughter of the late Alfred and Rena (Scrivani) Maurice.

She was predeceased by her husband of 13 years, Roger P. Benesh, in 1986.

Judi retired from General Motors as an Administration Professional in 1999, after a lifelong career.

She is survived by her 3 daughters, Beth Ann Benesh and her husband Ronald Wythe of Watertown, Theresa Benesh and her partner Shawn Renes of Hudson, Joanne Benesh Campbell and her husband Jason of Bellingham, 4 grandsons, Jesse Hikel, Ian Hikel, Anthony Campbell, Tyler Campbell, her sister Kathleen Martyniak of Raynham and several nieces and nephews.

She was predeceased by her brother Robert Maurice.

She enjoyed cooking for others and took pride in making homemade pasta, sauce and meatballs.  Judi had a love for and found joy in reading historical and biographical novels.  You would most often find Judi watching reruns of her favorite shows and she always knew “who did it” or what the next punch line was.  Another favorite of Judi’s was going out to eat, often taking her grandchildren out to lunch or meeting up with friends.  Most of all, she took great pride in her family and cherished her time with them.

After retirement, Judi was an active member of the General Motors retiree club and was the club Treasurer.  A lifelong member of the Immaculate Conception Church, Judi was strong in her faith.  At Saturday mass, she would be found in “her” pew reciting her prayers and catching up with some of her friends.

Visitation will be held on Monday, October 28, 2024 from 4-6 pm in the Short & Rowe Funeral Home, 95 W. Main St., Marlborough, MA.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Tuesday, October 29, 2024 at 11 am in the Immaculate Conception Church, 11 Prospect St., Marlborough. Burial will follow in Evergreen Cemetery.
