Judith Hundley

Judith “Judi” Elaine Hundley, age 70, a lifelong resident of Chillicothe, Missouri, passed away on Saturday, June 7, 2025 at Hedrick Medical Center, Chillicothe, Missouri. She was born the daughter of Charles Russell and Mabel Genevieve (Hammack) King on July 6, 1954 in Chillicothe, Missouri. She was a 1973 graduate of Chillicothe High School. Judi was united in marriage to Ottis Hundley on May 2, 1975 in Chillicothe, Missouri. He survives of the home.
We remember and honor the life of a devoted wife, beloved mother, and cherished “Ma,” whose love, faith, and kindness touched everyone who knew her. A faithful member of Cornerstone Church for over 30 years, she lived her life with grace and purpose, serving her community and guiding young hearts during her many years as director of Sure Foundation Daycare within the church.

She found joy in life’s simple blessings—traveling to the beach with her family, enjoying the warm breeze on her front porch, and making memories that will be treasured forever. But above all, her greatest joy came from being with her grandchildren, who were the light of her life and the center of her heart.

Her legacy of faith, family, and love will continue to live on through the lives she touched. She will be deeply missed, fondly remembered, and forever loved.

She is survived by her husband, Ottis Hundley of the home; daughter, Heather Bonderer and husband, Doug of Chillicothe, Missouri; five grandchildren, Madi McGraw, Lydia McGraw, Leo Bonderer, Sadie Bonderer, and Libbie Bonderer; sister, Patty Altes and husband, Gary of Chillicothe, Missouri. She was preceded in death by her parents; and two brothers, Charles R. King, II and Ron King.
