Judy Colleen Rorick Rooms was born to Don and Nell (Cullison) Rorick on February 17, 1938 in Guthrie Oklahoma and passed away in Edmond Oklahoma on March 28, 2022.

Judy graduated from Ardmore High School class of ’56 where she was a majorette for the high school band and rodeo queen. Judy loved horses and was a barrel racer on the professional rodeo circuit. She spent most of her career as an administrative secretary in the federal government until she retired in 2006 after spending the last part of her career in Anchorage Alaska and Seattle Washington. Judy merely worked to support her addiction to traveling and dancing where she competed in many west coast swing dance competitions all over the country. Judy made friends wherever her travels took her. She loved music and passed that on to her children and grandchildren. She loved and supported her boys in their varied endeavors. She will be missed by her family and friends until we see her again.
