So sorry for your loss. She was such a sweet and loving person. She will not be forgotten. I remember the day she adopted her sweet kittens. We talked often of cats and their antics as I have cats also. I know how she loved you and her family and your family. My heart aches for you.

I am so sorry to hear of Judy's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this time. She was a lovely person and I thought a lot of her. I last heard from her at Christmas. My daughter has a video tape of the family on Aunt Sarah's birthday that she will try to get copies to you all.
Love and prayers,

Rob,
I am sorry for the loss of your Mother. She was always smiling when I visited you at your house, even when you hadn't cleaned your Monte Carlo. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Allen, my heart goes out to you during this difficult loss. My sincere condolences to you and your family. I am so deeply saddened by Judy's passing. She was my absolute greatest friend and I will miss her beyond words. My love for her, and tears for her passing, will never run dry. "The heart remembers most what it has loved best"... I have many wonderful memories of my long friendship with Judy, for which I will always cherish. At this time of loss may your memories of Judy comfort you and bring you peace. I want you to know my thoughts and prayers were with Judy each and every day during her illness. Judy was a true giver who infused everyone around her with joy and love. She will be deeply missed by all who knew her. May hope and peace be yours today and always. With Sympathy, Bonnie

We consider ourselves blessed to have had Judy in our lives. She was such a warm and loving person who always saw the best in every situation. We will miss NASCAR races with her cheering for Dale Jr., her tales of world travel, and her tender smile. Judy will live on in our memories as not only our aunt, but a friend as well. Uncle Al, there are no words that can take the hurt away, but it is reassuring to know that one day in Heaven we will see her smile again.
