In Memory of Judith Rose Hutter

 

Our beautiful Judith passed away peacefully on November 23, 2022 in Desert Hot Springs, California. Judy stated her goal was for “a dignified ending and peaceful”, and she did just that! She is resting in Heaven with her wonderful mother and father and family members who departed before her. She is reunited with the love of her life Ronald ‘Duke’ Yankovich; all are awaiting to receive us.

Blessed Are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. – Matthew 5:4

Judith Rose Hutter was the daughter of Rosa ‘Rosie’ Koral Hutter and Albert Franklin Hutter. She was a native of Orange County, California.  She was an honored Girl Scout. She graduated from Newport Harbor High School, Newport Beach, California and was raised in Costa Mesa, California.

As a young child Judy was raised with her cousins Roz, Diane, Penny, and Karla in Santa Ana, California as their fathers were serving in WWII overseas. Judy and her brother Jack lived an active childhood of adventure with their parents; hunting, camping, fishing and hiking. They shared a mutual love for backyard archaeology and created wonderful yard art that would rival Knott’s Berry Farm!

Judith Hutter is a Southern California treasure.  She was a beautiful vivacious model for Volkswagen and Porsche.  She could pull off her good looks from ‘deep red head to a beautiful blonde’ haired Slavic muse. Judith travelled the world and lived her life by her terms and was a true free spirit; our wonderful Bohemian!

She owned ‘Macho’ a men’s hair salon in Laguna Beach, California. Judy was one of many of those in the hair industry that was tutored or mentored under Sebring International, by Jay Sebring himself. She was a lifelong barber and involved in real estate.

‘Serious as a Heart Attack!’

Her Czechoslovakian and German DNA wove through her business accolades of beauty and class. Judy was in the right place and the right time when Southern California was filled with beautiful people. She was onto something as a female barber before it was cool. Way ahead of our times, she crossed the stars, the moon and our hearts forever.

Judy was a formidable spirit, determined and true. She never said anything bad about anyone. She was private about her family and held her cards close.  She overcame her struggles with pluck and dare. She was a force to be reckoned with and loved a fun time with family and friends which usually had music, booze and Mexican food, but don’t forget the laughter!  Judy was a poet and we know it.

“I Don’t Want to Hear it”

Judy loved country western music and jazz.  She would recite her poetry as a timeless orator with a sweeping hand and a meaningful pause, then a look from her eye to yours to make her exact point, and strongly leap to the next sentence in a sensual and affirmed cadence. We all believed in her. 

When we would gather on the phone she commanded an audience; or in person she would strike her classic pose for photos, must have lipstick and her beautiful hair coiffed perfectly so. Accented by her expressive clothing that became her iconic presence of elegance. You knew you were in front of a grand energy that was unstoppable and loveable and she called the shots. She lived life her way.

‘I did it my way’.

She adored her babies; her cat Ziggy from her friend Leah and her doggy MooMoo from her cousin Diana.  She donated to animal care charities and veteran causes that were so dear to her soul. Judy had a great sense of humor.  You probably are a recipient of some of her colorful cards, and there is nothing you could do about that! (Haha!). She toasted the heavens and loved those dear to her heart.  You were will never forget her one liners! 

My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.

–      2 Corinthians 12:9

 

Judy reunited in Christ towards the end of her amazing life and appreciated prayers extended her way.  She said ‘You know I’m a Christian, right?”.  She reconciled spiritually at the end of her long life and is an spiritual inspiration towards a well lived and recovered life.

‘Get Out of Here!’

Judith is survived by her brother Albert Jack Hutter and sister-in-law Alice G. Hutter of Orange County, California, her nephew Scott and his wife Len, niece Anna and her husband Michael and their children (8 beautiful children all together); and her cousins Rosalind W., Penny H., Koral G., Joel G., Rodney K., Byron Q., Shawn A., Kara A., and her significant other Henry Otto Detjen Jr.
