Dear Rodney and Family.
I was in shock when I read that Judy had passed away, it seems like yesterday I was chatting with her. My heart is broken, what a beautiful loving wife, mother, Nana- she LOVED her family SO SO much, was always talking about them. It seems like yesterday she just sold her mom’s home with Merrianne helping, after raising 6 kids there.
My prayers are with all of you. Your love for her is the passion you hold onto over the coming years til you meet again.
