Judy Youins, age 68, of New Haven, passed away on Tuesday, June 14, 2022, after a long courageous battle with cancer.
Judy was born on August 21, 1953, in New Haven, daughter of Florence Biddle Douglas and Irving Douglas of West Haven, and the late Allen Skinner Jr. She was the loving companion of James “Jimmy” Stephens.
Judy was educated in the West Haven Public School system and graduated in 1971. She previously worked at SNET as a customer service representative, where she retired with over 25 years of service. She began a second career as a Billing Specialist at the Law Offices of Tobin & Marohn where she retired in 2020.

Judy was a member of Sisters’ Journey and honored in the 2016 calendar.
Judy was a very loving and caring person, who extended herself beyond measure to bring happiness to others through cards of expressions. In her spare time, she loved to shop, get her daily exercise walking to various places and attending “concerts on the green.” She enjoyed spending time with her family, companion Jimmy and her grandchildren whom she adored.
