Judy was such a fun lady - always a laugh. I loved her as a Nursing supervisor because she would dig right in and help. She was admired and loved by those of us who worked with her at Providence Medical Center. I also enjoyed seeing her at various visitations and funerals. Judy went to God. Sorry for all of us - Judy will be missed but remembered. Anne Lattimer, RN (Ret.)

My sincere condolences for your loss. Judy was always so kind and caring when I would come by the house on Pyle street to hang out with John. I don't ever remember her getting mad at me for all the crazy things John and I did. So many fond memories of Judy and the whole family.

Judy was so kind and generous. She went to nursing school and worked with our sister. They were life long friends. In our honor of our sister, Judy along with her children would donate to our family scholarship in lieu of giving Christmas presents to each other. Thanks for being an angel here on earth, Judy. My heart felt condolences to your family. Brenette Gardner
