In Memoriam: Judy Mendolusky, 1943-2026

March 22, 2026 by AC Editor

A long-time member of the Massachusetts insurance industry and a former agency owner

In Memoriam: Judy Mendolusky

Leominster – Judy Amanda Lanciani Mendolusky, 83, formerly of Leominster, passed on February 21, 2026.  She was the daughter of Annie DiMarzio and William Lanciani, long-time Leominster residents.  Judy was a well-known independent insurance agent from 1986 until the sale of her business in 2016, spending more than 40 years in the insurance industry.  She was known and loved by many, often enjoying the company and visits of all of her insureds.  Loved by friends, family, and insureds, who she always made feel welcomed and appreciated.  Judy dedicated her life to caring for and providing for her family, so we never went without.  She was selfless with her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.

Judy is survived by her three children, John (Jack) Mendolusky, formerly of Leominster, daughter, Lisa A. Porter and her husband John Porter and son Jason P. Mendolusky.  She is survived by her grandchildren: Ashley, Olivia, Mikenna, First Class Petty Officer Sierra, Sydnee Lozeau and a grandson Cameron.  GG loved her great grandchildren very much.

Marsha Smith, her sister was by her side through her last several years.  She is survived by Marsha and Roger Smith, Dennis and Joan Lanciani and Cheryl Lanciani.

Judy’s brothers, William and Paul, passed before her and were Leominster residents.  Judy’s former husband, Paul D. Mendolusky, also predeceased her.

Many thanks to the incredible staff and friends from the Baldwinville Skilled Nursing Facility.
