Judy Ellen Kukowski Hall

Dec 30, 1956 -

Dec 2, 2025

With great sadness and a heavy heart our sister Judy has left this earth and is now in heaven with the Lord.

Judy was born in Anchorage, Alaska, the fifth of 12 children. She grew up in downtown Anchorage next to the park strip and spent summers in Chicken, Alaska, working their family gold mine.

In the early 1980s she moved to Juneau, Alaska, where she catered meals and worked in the flight kitchen for Western Airlines bought by Delta and later Alaska Airlines, she also ran the Moose Lodge kitchen for several years. Judy completed an apprenticeship at Fred Meyers and became a butcher receiving her Master Butcher Certification and in the later years moved onto the produce department until her retirement in 2021.

Judy met her husband David Hall in Juneau, and they were married on July 1, 2000. They loved being on the water, boating and crabbing in Alaska. They also loved visiting the Islands of Hawaii, especially Turtle Bay on the Big Island.

In August 2022, Judy decided to return to Anchorage, being closer to her family after the passing of her husband David in August 2021. Judy and David's last wish was to rest peacefully together on the Big Island of Hawaii.

She was also preceded in death by her mother, Edith; father, Gordon; and brothers, David and Jimmy (James) Kukowski.

Judy leaves behind her sisters, Jeanette (Marcus), Diane (Danny) and Mary (George); brothers, Danny, Raymond (Vicke), Patrick (Julie), Michael and Todd (Renia); many nieces and nephews; along with David's daughters, Ginger and Brandy; and many grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Judy 's family will be Celebrating her Life at her favorite restaurant for many years, Poncho Villa's 3104 Spenard Road in Anchorage, on Saturday, July 11, 2026, between 1-4 p.m.

We welcome you to come and share your memories and stories of our dear sister Judy with us.
