Judith Ann Leighton Obituary

We are sad to announce that, on August 20, 2025 we had to say goodbye to Judith Ann Leighton in Hays, Kansas. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Judith Ann Leighton to show support.

As Judith Ann departs from this earthly realm, her essence lingers — a whisper on the wind, a ripple on the water — a testament to the enduring power of love to transcend the boundaries of life and death. Though Judith Ann may no longer walk beside us, her spirit lives on in the memories and the legacy Judith Ann leaves behind.

She was predeceased by: her parents, James Neff and Julia Neff (Veach); her husband Michael "Mike" Leighton; and her brothers, Sam Neff and John Neff.

She is survived by: her son Jason Hammer (Joan Hoffman) of Great Bend; her granddaughter Megan Adams (Zach) of Hutchinson; her great grandchildren, Waylon Adams, Hadley Adams and Nevaeh Pedigo; and her sister Peggy Bieberle (Floyd) of Wichita.
