Judy Gervais Wicker
SANFORD, NC: Judy Lynn Gervais Wicker, age 61, passed away unexpectedly on Tuesday, March 14, 2023, at WakeMed Hospital in Raleigh, North Carolina.
She was born in St. Albans, Vermont the daughter of Avis Garrett Gervais and the late Normand “Gus” Gervais. In addition to her father, Judy was preceded in death by her loving husband, Mark, and her brothers, Steven and Michael Gervais.
Judy was a telecommunicator supervisor with the City of Sanford for the last 24 years. She was dedicated to both her job and community and her death will leave a very big void for all who knew and loved her.
Judy is survived by her mom, Avis of Vermont; her brother, David Gervais of Vermont; a special nephew who she loved like a son, Simeon “Sam” Gervais and his wife, Jenessa and their two boys, Parker and Hudson of Vermont; several nieces and nephews; her North Carolina family – a very special group of friends, and beloved companion, her dog, GG.
Judy was full of love, life, and compassion. She was often the glue that held everybody together. She had a passion for traveling and the ocean, where she had hoped to move after her retirement. Judy would want everyone to carry on and live each day to the fullest.
When I Am Gone
When I come to the end of my journey and I travel my last weary mile,
Just forget if you can, that I ever frowned and only remember the smile.
Forget unkind words I have spoken; remember some good I have done.
Forget that I ever had heartache and remember I’ve had loads of fun.
Forget that I’ve stumbled and blundered and sometimes fell by the way.
Remember I have fought some hard battles and won, ere the close of the day.
Then forget to grieve for my going, I would not have you sad for a day,
But in summer just gather some flowers and remember the place where I lay,
And come in the shade of evening when the sun paints the sky in the west.
Stand for a few moments beside me and remember only my best.
