IHLE, Judith Tibbetts
Judith Tibbetts IHLE, born on September 10, 1936, in Long Branch, NJ, dusted off her flying wings and embarked on her next adventure from the peace and solitude of her home, surrounded by family, June 15, 2024, in Kill Devil Hills, NC. She was a Jill ofall trades and master of many throughout her life. Judy experienced various roles in her work life, including serving as a flight attendant with Eastern Airlines, and seamstress extraordinaire. Her love of flying lasted all her life, and she enjoyed aerobatics in an open cockpit biplane with her son at the age of 77! She also found joy in the hospitality industry while living at Ocracoke. An avid reader, Judy also dedicated her time to tutoring children at Ocracoke School, leaving a positive impact on those around her. Known for her gardening skills (and her extraordinary will and determination), Judy was always helpful in dispensing advice on growing all things green and the results of her expertise are still found in many yards on Ocracoke and beyond. She was a foodie before the term became popular, particularly fond of blueberry pancakes, Capt. Franks hotdogs, and was always in search of the perfect banana. Judy is survived by her daughter, Linda Ihle; son, Larry Ihle and his wife Steph; granddaughter, Annie Kearns and her husband Justin; great-granddaughters, Kira and Zoe; and her sister, Nancy. She was preceded in death by her parents, Stella St. Ours Tibbetts and Frederick Morrill Tibbetts. In honoring Judy's life, private services will be held at a later date. May her memory be a source of comfort and peace to those who knew and loved her. Twiford Funeral Homes, Outer Banks is assisting the family with arrangements. (Twiford Funeral Home)
