Judy was always very patient and kind to my grandmother. I had some contact with her and she was always very nice. My grandmother had a lot of ailments and was on a lot of medicine so we frequented her place on a regular basis. I know at times my gma could be very trying and Judy was always so sweet even though I know it drove her crazy. She will be missed. The world lost a good woman, but she is in a better place. Will pray for her.

Judy fought many battles with her health but God allowed her to live a long life. She was loved by many. The many memories I have feel like it was yesterday. The times she would stop by our house after getting groceries and visit just a minute while the ice cream was melting in the car. The time Jill and I babysat while your parents went on a trip; we heard a noise during the night and called Carl (it was a gate swinging in the wind). I made a casserole and you, Jimmy and Jaime,and Jill wondered why it looked like soup and tasted awful. One of your mom's favorite phrases was,"May the good Lord take a liking to you but not too soon." I guess he took a "liking" to her and she got to heaven before us.

I love you Jimmy and Jaime,

Judy was my best friend when we were in the first and second grades in Leedey Grade School. I always admired her friendliness and her love for everything she did. She truly was an inspiration for all who knew her. She never forgot her friends. Myrna Carney

Judy was my second mom in high school and also my boss at Shoppers City. I was lucky that she contacted me when she came to visit Topeka and we went out to dinner and have a long conversation about life. She was good about keeping all her friends/family attuned to her condition as long as she could. She will be missed by many friends/family but the memories that we have in here will be eternal. Jaime and Jimmy, my condolences to you.

Judy made a difference in the lives of many people. My wife Jody was one of them, she led Jody to Christ and I know they are both smiling in the Kingdom. God bless you Judy.
