Judith Joanne Hattie
Posted By Sobering Funeral Chapel On November 16, 2021 @ 9:51 am In Obituaries | 37 Comments
Judith Hattie passed away peacefully at Pinawa Hospital on November 8, 2021.
Judy was born and raised in Winnipeg, growing up in East Kildonan with her parents John and Peggy Yaremchuk, and brother Gerald. After achieving her MSc in biology, she took up teaching, first in Whitemouth, where she met John Hattie, with whom she would spend 44 happy years, and then to Beausejour, spending her 35 year career encouraging her students to love and respect the natural world. She was very proud of her students, and always glad to hear updates from them after graduation.
She spent her retired years with husband John, and daughter Charlotte, focusing on the interests dearest to her heart: her family, menagerie of animals, gardening, home design and decoration, and the crossword puzzles that she and Charlotte worked on together.
Judy was a warm and wonderful woman, the bedrock of her family, and will be desperately missed by the family and friends who loved her. She was predeceased by John, and her parents, and is survived by daughter Charlotte, and brother Gerald.
According to her wishes, cremation has taken place, and no service will be held. In lieu of a formal service, let her memory be a blessing, and she would be honored best by planting a tree, a garden, or helping animals in need.

I remember Mrs. Hattie from Biology class, she was a wonderful teacher and her energy was infective..
Our deepest condolences to her family..
Mrs. Hattie was a great teacher. She was kind, intelligent, and didn’t put up with anyone’s bad attitude! I enjoyed being in her class, and then working as a fellow teacher a few years later. My deepest condolences to Charlotte and the rest of the family/friends.
Charlotte, so sorry to hear of your Mother’s passing❤
Deepest condolences, Charlotte! Your Mom was a wonderful person. She was a great colleague. We worked together for many years.
My condolences RIP Mrs. Hattie. A great teacher indeed.
Mrs. Hattie’s biology class was always interesting and she definitely enhanced my interest in the environment. Thanks to her I was introduced to Rachel Carson and I still remember many of the scientific names of local animals. We were very lucky to have her at our school . I will definitely plant a tree in her honour and memory next summer!
So sorry for your loss.
Mrs. Hattie was a great teacher. Always kind. A special lady.

I learned so very much from Mrs. Hattie, and I loved learning from her. Such a gift to us. I’m so grateful.
I was just reminiscing about how great a teacher Mrs. Hattie was and how she really cared for her students. Condolences to Charlotte and her family.
With deepest sympathy & many fond wonderful memories of Mrs.Hattie. She was one of my favorite teachers & even though my test scores were average at best I excelled at written reports on films we would watch. She gave me a 21/20 once and I believe I still have that paper.Always there with a listening ear…You will be missed Rest Easy Mrs. Hattie

Mrs. Hattie was my high school teacher and the most genuine, intelligent and lovely lady. Sorry for your loss.
Sad to hear of Judy’s passing. I can echo the sentiment of the other former students in these comments. Judy was not just a teacher of biology. She was a teacher of life! An all around lovely caring human who truly made learning fun. My heartfelt condolences to Charlotte, Gerald, and family for your loss. Take solace in, what I am sure, are many wonderful memories.
Sincere sympathies Charlotte and family,
Your mother’s willingness to extend herself beyond the classroom is the only way I got to knowing her, and appreciate her. She is remembered well.
Rest in Peace Mrs. Hattie. She definitely helped anyone who struggled. One of my best marks, Biology 200/300, because she encouraged me.
Charlotte:
I am sorry to hear about your mother’s passing.
She was an awesome teacher.. I gained my love of birds from her, especially pelicans which continues to today.
May the wonderful memories bring you comfort at this time.

My deepest condolences on the passing of your Mother, Charlotte. May she rest in peace. Never was there a daughter as devout as you. Your care and your commitment to your Mom was unwavering – you deserve every bit of respect that this sincerely respectable woman had for you. Judy and her light will be missed by many.
So sorry to hear of Judy’s passing. Such a loss to all.
My sincerest condolences. Mrs. Hattie’s biology class was always the very best! I loved her dictated notes and continuous encouragement towards her students. Some of my fondest memories of school were of Mrs.Hattie’s biology class. She truly was a special lady and will be missed by so many.
John and Charlotte- I’m so sorry for your loss. Judy (Mrs. Hattie) taught me so much about biology, but so much more than that: about being being curious, about being a strong woman, about not being afraid to stand up for what you believe in.
She was what a teacher should be, and I’m grateful for her influence on my life.
I loved biology because Mrs.Hattie loved teaching it. She was encouraging but most of all believed I could achieve excellence. The most valuable lesson she taught me was confidence. I’m so sorry to hear of her passing. My condolences to Charlotte.
Mrs Hattie-
That picture is from when I knew you best! The electric coffee cup warmer on your desk with the crazy hippie eco-friendly posters in your classroom!
With your help we won the group Canadian science fair and Carla won the individual!
And sorry our crayfish experiments made your classroom stink
Mrs. Hattie was a beautiful, adventurous, passionate soul and she will be missed. Thankfully, she left us with many great memories and a duty to respect our planet.
Rest in peace
So sorry to hear about the loss of a wonderful teacher. Not only do I remember class but I also loved being part of the Agassiz Science Klub (ASK). Condolences to Charlotte and the family.
To John and Charlotte and the rest of the Hattie family my deepest sympathies.
Judith Hattie was a great teacher. We were lucky to have her in Beausejour at Edward Schreyer Senior High School.
I think my love of biology came from her and I know I enjoyed my classes with her and our Grade 12 trip to the zoo for sure on our interactive test assignment. Something very different from other classes. I think this love rubbed off on my daughter who loves biology and was fortunate to have a great teacher here in Alberta as well.
Mrs. Hattie has left a legacy I am sure for many former students. She will be missed.
I am so very sorry to hear that your Mom has passed away.
I am her cousin Lena, we lost touch so long ago.
I remember her best as a sweet little girl.
Love to all.
Lena
We are so very sorry to hear about this, Charlotte. Keeping you in our hearts, thoughts and prayers and sending very much love.
Charlotte
I’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your mom Mrs. Hattie. She was an amazing teacher and had a deep love for biology. Being apart of her class, and also the ASK team was a fun time for me during school. I will never forget your Halloween party. Your mom knew how to have a fun time.
Sending prayers and thoughts your way
