So sorry to hear of the loss of such a great wife, mother, and grandmother. I remember going to the house in Silver Creek and swimming in the pool behind the garage as a young child. We loved hanging out at Uncle Doug and Judy’s house. After I moved away I can remember my mom and dad going camping and riding bikes with them. I can’t even begin to get into the number of crafts my mom and Judy were into. They say it is not the number of years but the number of lives you touch that shows the value of living. Aunt Judy you leave us knowing that thousands of lives were made better because you were in them. You will be missed.
Love Kyle, Tracey and Family
