Judy, Lynn and I were members of First Lutheran Church in Lincoln. Judy and I shared a lot of laughter, tears, and some really fun times as life unfolded. She was a loyal friend, and I am going to miss her a lot. You were lucky to have had such a loving mother/grandma.
We just found her obituary. I am sorry to have missed her services. We would have been there to honor her.
