Obituary of Judson L. Oot November 26, 2014 Judson L. Oot, 35, of Sterling passed away unexpectedly Wednesday, November 26 at his home. Born in Oswego, NY June 20, 1979. He spent the majority of his life in the Martville, NY area and a few years in Ira, NY and had attended Hannibal and Cato High Schools.

He had been employed over the years with several automotive service companies, starting at age of 13 at Baker auto parts yard in Red Creek and was able to fix anything with a motor. Even worked for John Deer in FL. After a serious accident in 2007 in FL left him with a TBI, he started his own small engine service. Known for a kind heart, he was ALWAYS willing to help those in need. Surviving are his partner and soul mate Barbara Hadcock of Sterling; his parents James and Juanita Oot of Ira, NY; one brother James Oot II of Ira, NY; two nephews Jacob and Cilas Oot of Ira, NY; three uncles, Richard Oot of Albuquerque, NM, Guy Osborn of Florida and Roger Osborn of North Carolina; two aunts, Doris Mansfeld of Decator , Alabama and Lori Landford of Texas; many cousins, and some very best friends, Tom, Eric, Donny and Steve.
