BROWN, JUDITH BEALS, 81, passed away on Monday, October 15, 2012 at her
home in the Summit neighborhood. A lifelong resident of Providence, she was
the daughter of the late Morris and Dorothy Brown. Judy was a graduate of
Classical High School and a 1952 graduate of Brown University (Pembroke
College), earning her degree in American Civilization. She was a hard
working and loyal volunteer for Brown University her entire life, serving
as a leader of the Class of 1952 for many decades, and also as a career
advisor to several generations of Brown students. After retirement, she
enjoyed joining other alumni on "Brown Travelers" trips and was a member of
the University's College Hill Society, which consists of alumni who provide
consistent and long-standing support of Brown. She was an active member of
her community on Providence's East Side, serving for many years as the

An avid gardener and bird watcher, she was a friend to many; involved,
interested and fascinated by many different things, eager to be with people
and to continue learning throughout her life. Judy worked as an executive
assistant at several companies, including Smith-Holden Dental Supply and
Dimeo Construction, as well as at the law firm of Hinckley Allen & Snyder.
