My prayers are with your family. I'll never forget what Judy told me, when Bill and I came to Eva's right after we got married. I also remember playing Bucko together. Miss your wonderful smile.

Sweet beautiful forever kind Judy … always smiling, always friendly…. Moving into a new small school in the middle of high school was hard - but Judy in Bison Bells - never mistreated a stranger - and always shared her talent and loving heart.
