Judy Funderburk Holley McLester, 74, of Oakboro, passed away Monday, April 15, 2024.

Judy was born September 23, 1949 in Union County to the late Boss and Virginia Funderburk. She was also preceded in death by her beloved husband Mackie McLester; son, Ricky Len Mills; and two brothers, Buster and Roger Funderburk.

Judy retired from United States Cold Storage after more than 20 years of service. She was also a licensed real estate agent. Judy loved animals and enjoyed rescuing dogs. She also enjoyed watching and feeding her hummingbirds. Judy was a lot of fun. She always spoke her mind. You always knew where you stood with her. Judy also loved traveling. She would be Mrs. Claus when Mackie would play Santa. She also enjoyed riding in Mackie's classic cars and going to car shows. Most of all, Judy would spoil the grandkids.

Survivors include her son, Eddie (Angie) Mills of Monroe; step-son Neal (Marnee) McLester of Huntersville; step-daughter, Chris Ann (Jimmy) Johnson of Oakboro; sisters, Ann Funderburk Helms of Oak Island and Terry Funderburk (Danny) Helms of Monroe; three grandchildren, Timothy (Meredith Epps) Mills, Taylor (Tyler) Tobin, Chloe Mills; four great-grandchildren, Anna Mills, Rylee Tobin, Caelan Mills, and Peyton McLester; and dear friends, Gail Parnell, Renea Efird, and Lisa Wright.
